GAME TABLE. No. 515,458. Patented Feb. 27, 1894.

WILLIAM E. ANDRElV, OF ATLANTIC HIGHLANDS, NEW JERSEY.
GAM E-TABLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 515,458, dated February 27, 1894.
Application filed September 13, 1893. Serial No 43 ,374 No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that 1, WILLIAM E. ANDREW, of Atlantic Highlands, county of Monmouth, and State of New Jersey, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Game- Tables, of which the following is a full, true, and exact description,reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to tables upon which the game of pool is played, that is, a table having pocketsand which is ordinarily known as a pool table. I
This invention consists broadly, in providing the corners of the table with cushions arranged at an angle to the side and end cushions and in providing a pocket in each of these corner cushions.
In pool tables, as now constructed, the side and end cushions meet in the corners at right angles to each other which renders it quite easy for an expert player to run a ball along a cushion into a corner pocket, which is in direct line with the edge of the cushions. With my invention it is obvious that such a play is rendered difficult or impossible.
In the accompanying drawings Figure 1 is a top or plan View of a pool table embodying my improvement and Fig. 2 is a plan view on an enlarged scale of a corner portion of the table.
Referring by letter to the drawings, A designates the bed of the table, A the rail, B, the side cushions and'B the end cushions.
C designates the corner cushions arranged at an angle to the side and end cushions. It is to be understood that I do not confine myself to any particular degree of angle neither do I confine myself to the length of the corner cushions.
The corner cushions are cut away in their central portions to form openings a leading to the pockets a, and thus the corner cushions practically form ofisets or shoulders between the longitudinal edge of the ordinary cushions and the pockets thus forming a barrier to the line cushion shot before mentioned.
Having described my invention, what I claim is In a game table, the combination with the bed, the side cushions, and the end cushions, of corner cushions arranged at an angle relatively to the side and end cushions, and having the cut away portions,and the pockets, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
WILLIAM E. ANDREW.
