| Algeria From the 1908-1909 Brunswick-Balke-Collender Co. catalog, page 20: One of our standard grade tables of strictly good quality in construction and finish. Manufactured under eighteen construction patents awarded from 1892 to 1905. Available as Carom, pool or combination. This is essentially a conventional design that has that has that predominant feature of plain surface work which characterizes all of our higher grade tables. We avoid dust catching and cheap ornamental work, as our tables are built to last a lifetime, and they do it. The Algeria is furnished only in golden oak, quarter-sawed and highly polished. The slate bed is best quality Vermont one inch thick, the sections being joined with brass dowels and sockets, entirely eliminating screw holes in the slate bed--the method used in tables by other manufacture. The cushions are the celebrated quick acting Monarch, guaranteed the most perfect angle cushion in the world. Used by all professional players in America and Europe. The cushion rails are of extra heavy construction and firmly bolted to the slate bed. The cushion rail tops are veneered with rosewood, which does not change color, cannot be easily disfigured and does not have the objectionable features of a polished surface. |
