Info on this Fischer Pool Table
I don't know much about Fisher pool tables, are they any good?
The only one I can find with the same name is a coin-op pool table. I can't seem to find out any info online.
- Does anyone know the Fischer model name for this pool table?
- What size thickness of slate do Fischer pool tables normally have?
Any and more info on this Fischer pool table model would be greatly appreciated.

The Model is the Fischer "Crown Imperial" pool table.
The slate on these would be either 3/4" or 1" thick slate.
They're a decently made pool table.
I've posted a few of the Fischer Crown brochures below. Note that the Fischer "Crown" pool table were made over a number of years and the design changed slightly, so the one in your photos may differ slightly.

The lady who owns it says that it has a 3-piece slate (or at least she thinks it is).
Would this be correct?

Possibly, depending on the year it was made (which, I assume we don't know).
It could very well be a one-piece slate (as the one shared in the previous question "Value of a 1963 Fischer Pool Table with 1-Piece Slate" shows a Fischer Crown pool table from 1963 and mentions specifically that it has a 1-piece slate).
At some point in history, one-piece slates fell out of favor due to the weight and difficulty to move safely. This point came at different times for different pool table makers, and it isn't well known exactly when Fischer switched fully.
Since this specific model has at least 8 iterations/versions (the model in the last image in my answer above, the "Crown VIII", is the 8th iteration of the Fischer "Crown" design). Some iterations had 1-piece slates (as we know for sure based on the previous question above) while some later ones may have had 3-piece slates.
The one in your photos does look "older" (based on the logos), so there is a good chance it's a 1-piece slate.
Long story short, you'll know when you get there (or when the seller takes it apart - which they'll have to do either way in order for the buyer to transport it safely).

There is a serial number plaque on it, but until I can see it in person I'm not sure of the year.
I can't look at it yet due to some issue with the realtor or something. I might be able to get her to send me a pic of it.
Other that that I'm really curious about this pool table.
I see on front of the picture that it is a Fischer Crown model, but under it says "Imperial", which all I can find is what you sent as well as the 100, 90, and 85 series, but no "Imperial".

A few notes for you:
- The serial number will not indicate the year.
- The "100, 90, and 85" you refer to are just sub-models. Those numbers indicate the various sizes available in the Fischer Crown pool table model.
Good luck!
