found a relic today, not in the ground but in a third store Attic. The lady wants us to remodel this attic into a small apt. But this 100 year old billiard table has to go.and she said Al use to play on it way back then. she said their is written word about how he use to come up here to Frankfort Mich. and stay in a house a block away. I wonder if it has much worththe room looks cool there is score counting chips on a wire hanging from the rafters and 5 cue s in between the studs. of the wall.very interesting.just wanted to tell you this . cant wait to ask permission to detect her yard.

Get that pool table !!!!! If it can be documented it's worth a small fortune > not to mention it's an antique !!

[nealb]

That's a cool find. Yes, get some pictures so we can all see.

I knew you would want pictures, I guess I am on a mission now, I can build a house but not sure if I can post pictures new for me

 

[Cynangyl]

You can do it!!!

That IS really cool. . . There are a lot of Capone memorabilia collectors out there that would pay handsomely for something like that. I know a person that sold ceramic tiles from Capone's office bathroom at the Lexington Hotel before they tore it down for $75 each. If you can, post some pictures, we'd love to see them.

Do you now own the pool table?

 

[TheTreasureAddict]

Ya get it, I have a foot stool that was his. We had it redone and now its sits unused very pretty in the house!

Just curious if anything ever turned up on this? I would still like to see some pics and hear how the story played out.

 

[crazyjarhead]

Yes, I used to play on it all of the time I just had to say that. Hope you can find out the history on it
