Antique Billiard, Snooker, Life Pool Scoreboard
An oak combined billiards and life pool scoreboard with glazed oak cupboard for balls. The billiard scorer has white rollers with black painted numbers, 0 to 100, and brass slides to mark your score. The Life Pool board consists of 12 slides with coloured discs (each colour representing the player's cue ball) and each slide reveals 3 mother-of-pearl discs, one for each life. There are also "stars" hiding, and they are used as extra lives. In the middle of the scoreboard there is a slate for keeping scores etc. The scoreboard was made by Padmore.

The game of Life Pool can be played by a number of players, who form the pool. Each player has their own coloured ball and loses a life each time the ball is potted by an opponent. When a player loses all of his lives he is out of the game.
