Great photography, Justin! I'm particularly interested in these two. The billiard table is a Brunswick-Balke-Collander Co. model first made in the 1880's known as the Monarch (lion). This one is a billiard table (no pockets) made for Carom games. The lion legs are cast iron that bolt up to a cast iron "spreader" underneath the table center with a vertical pipe column to help support the slate above it. The fancy work on the table cabinet is inlaid marquetry. I'm curious whether you photographed this somewhere in a ghost town or was this photograph set up somehow?

The second photograph appears to be an old poker table & poker chips?

Thank you for the info!! I took these while visiting Bodie, CA. I took around 70 images, too much to try to share here at once.

I had to take the photos through the windows as you are only allowed to enter one building, I'll attach the image from that
