Lately, Brunswick Billiards offered the distinctly intercontinental Zanzibar table as an exclusive product and now, they are resurrecting the 19th century design and elegance with the special edition 1878 Exposition Novelty table. Originally introduced in 1878 winning gold medals at both the San Francisco and Cincinnati Exposition, this commemorative antique replica Exposition Novelty features outstanding craftsmanship through the use of sapele rails, solid white oak legs, a range of grained veneers, solid brass rosettes and rail sights made of Asian water buffalo bone. Austin Rothbard, president of Brunswick Billiards, said that although the company produced more than 130 different table models during its first 100 years, they have revived the Novelty table because its design speaks to a bold era of art, culture and politics in America and around the world. Limited to 25 units worldwide, every Novelty Table features a limited edition brass Brunswick emblem and comes with a matching wall-mounted cue rack and Brunswick Exposition Novelty cue. It has been unveiled as part of preparation for the company’s 165th-anniversary celebration in 2010. The nine-foot Exposition Novelty table will be made available in October for $39,999.
