Cue Roque
From the Brunswick-Balke-Collender sell poster of 1932:

The Cue Roque table is finished in a light walnut color. It is a table of standard height and furnished in the 4 x 8' size only. The construction is the knock down style, consisting of two ends with legs attached and two side pieces which bolt to the legs. The side and end pieces that fasten to the legs are 8 1/2 inches in depth and 1 5/8 inches thick. The legs are 28 inches high and 6 inches square at the top, tapering to 4 3/4 inches at the bottom.

Cue Roque table rails are made of solid gumwood covered with a gumwood top. The cushion bolts extend through the rail, and the heads are covered with an ornamental cap. This table is equipped with small Superspeed Monarch Cushions.

The slate bed, which consists of three pieces of good quality 1 inch regulation size slate, has 22 holes bored in it for placing the posts. The posts are nickel plated brass with exposed parts covered with rubber to protect the balls.

The playing equipment consists of four 2 inch composition balls (white, red, yellow and blue), four cues, bridge, blackboard, crayons, eraser, chalk wrenches, etc.
