Summary |
Technical Information: From the 1908-1909 Brunswick-Balke-Collender Co., catalog, page 7: Manufactured under 18 construction patents awarded between 1892 and 1905. Most excellent value for the money; modern design; unusual durability and good playing qualities are the characteristic features of the York billiard and pool table. Available in carom, six pocket or combination model. The York billiard and pool table is of comparatively recent production. It is built on the lines of our Narragansett table, but is less massive and not so expensive. It is quite attractive in design and finish and is substantially constructed. It is one of the best medium grade of billiard tables on the market and is suited for all purposes. It is made in 4x8 and 4 1/2 x 9 sizes only and is carried in stock as billiard or pool or both combined in what is designed as a combination. It is furnished with the best quality Vermont slate and equipped with Monarch cushions. Made in sections, so that the frame work forming the body of the table can be taken apart for shipment. The various parts are doweled and reinforced with massive iron bolts, which obtains durability and rigidity. From the 1904 Brunswick-Balke-Collender Company Catalog, page 12: Most excellent value for the money, modern design, unusual durability and good playing qualities are the characteristic features of the York billiard and pool table. This style can be furnished with square legs, same as the Delaware, if desired. Photo: Manual: Not available |
