This is a sturdy roulette table made of wood and metal. The green felt has some spots and has faded over time. It is missing the brass end caps on the center beam of wood. The roulette wheel has been replaced and is a very close duplicate to the original..

The table measures 17½" long by 10¼" wide and 8½" tall.

Please view the photos in the listing.

Ask any questions prior to bidding.

I am starting this auction with a low opening bid for this historical piece of gaming history.

This item does not come along very often (maybe every decade) and would make a great addition to any casino collector's group.

Thanks and good luck
