You don't miss much do you mate...
It's OK they will be changed - didn't want to waste my brass screws on this wreck. So these will do for now.

Also for authenticity, the cloth should be a fuzzy pale-green woollen baize or cotton velvet, not a modern plush which is probably 100% Polyester. Reclaimed period fabric from upholsterers or Snooker table refurbers would be ideal.

Cool I'll ask around local upholsterers. It looks nothing like pool table cloth or would a table teclothrr use it for something else?

Re: Allwin identification help?
I couldn't decipher your last sentence, but some suitably aged cloth of the right material will meld so much better. You have a very unusual game there - it deserves the effort to get it right. Original or not, I do like the glass flowers.
Re: Allwin identification help?
The glass flowers and trims are definitely all original as shown on the other two machines I posted photos of.
Re: Allwin identification help?
I hope you're just winding us up!? Didn't bother mentioning it before because I thought it was obvious in the other machines pictured. Seems to have been the Aussie spandrel style as I've seen similiar things on quite a few locally made Allwins.
