Info on Possible Montgomery Ward's Pool Table

Need information on this pool table, including the brand, model, year of manufacture, and estimated value, etc.

I believe might be a Montgomery Ward pool table but there is no nameplate or any identification on it.

    You should get underneath the pool table with a flashlight and look for identifiers. If it IS a Montgomery Ward pool table it will likely have some markings as shown in the post 1973 Montgomery Ward Pool Table. If you find anything, post it here. Otherwise it's hard to tell for sure.

    As for value, they aren't worth anything.

    It might be a MW table however it was built by Fredrick-Willys out of Minnesota. You can tell by the corner casting and the leg design. I used to sell the Fredrick-Willys tables in the early 70's and installed many of them. Hope this helps.

    @Mr. B - I didn't realize Frederick Willys, Inc. made pool tables for Montgomery Wards, but now that you said it, I can totally see it.

    I can't believe I didn't put together the connection before now. Thanks!

    I've played on this exact pool table for YEARS growing up. My folks still have this very table at their house. We had new cloth put on it roughly 10 years ago.

    I finally figured out that it is a Montgomery Ward pool table. It is super cool to find one on this forum. Slate pool tables are where it is at. I believe mine is from 1973.

    The markings say:

    Manufactured by Member of BCA in 1973
    Model 60-92378-R
    Serial No. 5286 (at least that what it seems to read out to be).

    Note this marking was upside down and affixed underneath the pool table.
