Topic: Help dating old Rene Pierre table

[southpaw]

Greetings!

I recently purchased an older Rene Pierre table which I love! 

I'm trying to figure out when it was made, and estimated value.  It appears to have be the ‘blue top’ which I understand is rare based on reading a few posts in this forum.

The serial number is 37084.

There's also a coin mechanism.

Here’s a link to a few pictures:

I have just reached out to Alan Cribbs at www.bonziniusa.com as well as Rene Pierre directly.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Early to mid 70's. The first RP's came into the states in 1970 by Peabody's Va. Beach. I have lots of parts for these tables. Also, that is not a blue top as it appears to be some type of floor covering.
