Subject: New Billiards Movie
Posted on: Saturday, March 30, 2002, 06:48 AM
Hi! I'm a producer for a big Hollywood company and we are working on a new project around the English bar billiards game. My scouts have been watching your league and are particularly impressed with a young man called Richard Wooton, who I think could become a big movie star. We would very much like to make contact with his agent. The working title of the movie is 'Thrice, up you once'.

Apparently, a dining table is more important than my bar billiards table so I am reluctantly offering it for sale. It is in excellent condition, coin operated with the timer set for about 15 minutes. It comes with all accessories including original score board and table cover. I am looking for £595. Bognor Regis.

Found a table that may be available. I
am not familiar with Bar Billard Tables.
The one I saw looked very sound, wood
good but needs refinish. Cover not torn, but a little soiled. Has the coin
box, etc. Not sure if everything works
on it. What kind of value should I expect to pay. Thanks.
