Alrighty, my family and I just moved into a new home which has an existing table. I haven't been able to find any branding other this logo. Anyone know the manufacturer?

I’m not seeing a logo. You might not be able to post pics yet. Try and download the Tapatalk app for forums, it makes it much easier to post pics.

Thanks for the recommendation!
Here are a few photos. I'm confident it's not worth much but it plays nice and I'd just like to know how old it is, etc.

I think that's a Sears Riviera III from probably the mid 70's. The original Riviera came out in 1971 according to the reproduction manual over at Classicbilliards.net. Here is a link to a Riviera III I found on the internet for sale. The Riviera is about the only one that I could find with the padded faux leather on the pedestals.

Here is a link for the manual on the Riviera II, looks the same except the base looks to be non-adjustable, whereas the III has a less substantial base, but adjustable feet.

You sir are amazing! I did find out the gentlemen I bought the house from worked for Sears and roebuck his entire life. so it makes sense that it's from Sears.
Thanks man!

You are very welcome! Glad to help out...that table is a time capsule, it takes me back to the 1970s for sure. I think it even has the original felt. You are right about it not being worth much, but still a good table just for family entertainment.
