Redgrave Parlor Bagatelle Table. Jersey City, New Jersey, ca. 1871. Before Redgrave, bagatelle balls were shot out of the chute with a pool cue. Redgrave patented the spring loaded shooting device which, from that point forward, became the model for all bagatelle and pinball games. Large brass plate over the chute reads, “M. Redgrave’s Parlor Bagatelle Table Pat. May 30, 1871, 628 Newark Av. Jersey City, N.J.” Original bells and ladder intact, as well as the folding stand in back. 36 x 16”. Very Good.
