Snookerette
Description
There is no known listing for this game in any of the standard reference books, but it does appear on a list of games made from 1931-1939 which was published in the January 1940 issue of the Coin Machine Journal.
I do not have the game, and have never played it,but an elder brother of mine did in the nineteen thirties. He used to play Billiards at a Local Hall in the town of Hastings in East Sussex United Kingdom . In 1938 he came home with a Pewter Tankard inscribed SNOOKERETTE LEAGUE which I still have . Within the inscription is circular plaque depicting two players at the corner of what appears to be a Billiard Table. I have a vague recollection of him saying that Snookerette was played with obsticles , which if knocked down you were penalised for.
