I recently purchased an 1800s Lange company pub table with the pockets cut off. I am trying to have them rebuilt and need pictures of some tables and the pockets. As these came with different styles, I would appreciate any pictures you have of any pub table corner pockets.
The table I picked up was part of a set from a 1800s hotel in Mequon, Wisconsin. During prohibition it was a bordello and then a boarding house and then bar after bar. One of the neighbors purchased the 6 foot bar, back bar, round table, square table and coat rack from the small rathskeller area in 1971. The pieces remained together in the basement of his house until I recently purchased all of them.
I would greatly appreciate any pub table pocket pictures if you have access to any. I searched the web but could not find any in the mass amount of junk out there that pops up.
Thanks!

Re: Pub Table pictures needed please
I've got a call out for any books as well but the best is to see the designs in a close up if possible.
Any pics will help. There are two tables at the Old Milwaukee exhibit at the Museum but they are not the right design for this table.
Thanks for the info.

Re: Pub Table pictures needed please
Can you post a picture of the table you bought so we can see the style you have?
Focus: Cones and flats from Michigan, South Bend, and Fort Wayne. Foreign cans only if I bought them myself in the country of origin.

Re: Pub Table pictures needed please
I forgot to point out a couple of things from last nite . After I post on your thread, I look thru the book that I have and there is a couple of photo of pub table but not many, but not many. In fact I don't have a clue what kind of design pub table you have. There is other things you can check out. One of them is the ( ABA) National Brewery Museum in Potosi, Wis. . I haven't been there for awhile, but I do know that they improve the Library area , they may have some photo or book of pub table. There one other things, but I don't have,but I like to have ( I got OUTBID) on one) and that the original Brunswick catalog book shown some pub table. Also check old original Barware catalog even it not made by Brunswick.
I hope this will help ?? Like pinnacle-project say- Let see a photo of your pub table.

Re: Pub Table pictures needed please
The pieces are up getting stripped and ready. I will have them take a picture an send back to me.
I do have access to some actual Brunswick books from the turn of the century. I will see if any tables are in there.
Thanks for the info.
I found a few on ebay but they were newer.
