Brunswick Centennial vs Gold Crown, Are They the Same?
I'm considering in buying the pool table shown below.
The owner says it's a Brunswick Gold Crown pool table purchased by his father around 1955. It has the word "Centennial" printed on it by the ball return which threw me. The owner said "Oh, that's what they called Gold Crowns back then ... 'Gold Crown Centennial'."
I haven't been able to find any evidence if this claim but old Brunswick Centennials look very different from this. Also, the bottom of the base is squared off as opposed to the roof shape of other Gold Crown pool tables.
The photos aren't great.
Thank you in advance to anyone who can help!

It is most certainly not a Brunswick Gold Crown pool table, in fact, it's not even in the same class.
The Brunswick Centennial pool table is from their residential line. The Gold crown is a commercial-grade pool table.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate you going to the trouble to ID the pool table.
I read that the "Levelite" bed is actually compressed asbestos, or at least contains asbestos. I'm going to walk away from this one.
