A spectacular find, these pool balls are over 100 years old, made by The Albany Billiard Ball Company, Albany NY and in their original box thesed would make a fantastic display piece for any cue sport aficionado or collector.
Made using a material called Cellulose Nitrate, eventually called Cellulose, which was developed by John Wesley Hyatt, a printer, who had been encouraged to develop the new substance when he saw an ad offering $10, 000 to the person who invented a usable substitute for ivory in billiard balls. Though he eventually achieved success with his new material, forming the Celluloid Manufacturing Co. in 1871, it seems he never received the $10, 000 award. Get images that
