It looks like a old baseball style game the way its laid out. I sure would'nt cut it up it might be worth something. Do you have any other wording on it other than Nako?

wow, not a clue. I haven't seen anything like that before. Before you cut it up and throw it out, try to have an antique dealer take a look at it. If he/she says it is worthless, it may not be worthless to somebody on ebay, throw it up there for like $100 and see where it goes fromt here...Jay

Can you say: "Antiques Roadshow"??

Seriously, I have seen some incredible stuff draw some phenominal dollars.

*Get it appraised.* . . or do some web research.

Well its been neglected and a few peices are missing... but by god i'd say you have the first.. nine ball table on the planet, those weird contraptions are the ball return which is odd cause ive never seen them on a nine ball table... but anyway that thing could be worth abit of cash.

Looks like it's in pretty bad shape to me. I don't see how it would be worth anything in that condition.

It looks like an old billiards table that I saw in some old masion I toured a couple of years back. Looks like it could be worth some money. It might be worth checking into. Pun intended.

Try searching for

"Genco Champion Baseball". I am sure the table has value, even in its current shape.

Or try finding something like it in coinop.org

It looks to me like it could be the original Plinko machine for the Price is Right! You had better call Bob Barker and ask him to take a look at it.

Cool, now that you know, I would stick it on E-Bay or track down a web site of a collector. Looks like in recondituioned shape they are worth about $3,000 USD.
