"The Pfister" is a design which will at once appeal to the refined taste of good judges of artistic and mechanical excellence. It is modeled in a style singularly correct in every feature, while the perfect harmony shown in its gracefully sweeping lines and admirable contour will make it one of the most attractive adjuncts of private residences, prominent clubs, etc. This style is usually manufactured in golden oak or mahogany, but when desired can be made of any kind of wood.
"The Pfister" is also noticeable from the fact that the legs are constructed together with the two ends in one body. This is one of the latest improvements produced by us and has met with very satisfactory results. The construction of the head blocks of our tables is covered by letters patent, the special feature being that greater stability is insured than can be found in tables of any other manufacture. The mechanical construction and general design of some of our tables are copied, after a fashion, by various imitators, but they cannot and do not reach, even in the remotest degree, the recognized standard of perfection our tables have obtained. Furnished either as as carrom or pool table, or both combined. Framework built in section, can be taken apart for shipment. Corner joints reinforced by heavy iron bolts. Fitted with imported Simonis cloth, and the incomparable patent Monarch cushions. The "Pfister" has a doweled slate bed, so that there are no screw holes appearing on the playing surface beneath the cloth.
