Default C1920 Sports Table - Collecting at its best when you’ve never seen something before!

C1920 Sports Table
23” wide
Made in Austria

Every once in a while I come across something I’ve never seen before…Here would be the perfect example....The base folds, and I plan to store it and hang the top as a plaque in my hallway. Ran me $135.00 to get it shipped from England, which I don’t think was bad…should be here any day…hope it makes it OK. I sent out queries to people who might know something about it but have not heard anything. I don’t know if it’s a one of a kind or what. It looks pretty sturdy in the pictures and I speculate it may have been used in a café or something and maybe there were others…then again maybe it’s one of a kind…Or maybe Lord Rothchild or some other wealthy European baron had some made for his patio…I just don’t know…It’s going to be very interesting to unpack this thing and see it in person!
