Hmm. Ya, some of the men were broke and it came with some brand new spares. I didn't know how they went on. Murphy's law, I got it wrong. I realize they were different, but they were free and worked. I did take the glass off and cleaned everything REALLY good. It had rats living in it at some time and needed a good cleaning. The glass play surface was yellow from years of exposure to smoky environments. I handled the paper very gently. There is a spot where some water had got under the glass and wiffled the paper a bit, but you can't tell with the glass on. The whole thing does slide out, which made it easy for me to build a ramp for the ball return (and clean out the rat poop). Also makes it easier to move. As one unit that thing is HEAVY! Did I mention that?
I don't have a key for the lock but a screw driver works just fine.
Just ball park, what would the value be on a table like this? I am not a collector or big enthusiast for that matter, just reliving some old days of playing in the dorms in the Air Force and at bars.
The "1978" sticker was just placed under the glass with the backing still on it so it was never stuck.
