It is possible that Syd Frodsham may have been the billiard fitter that covered it, or installed it. I have my company stamp and also my `name stamp` which I put on tables which I have covered. it was popular that fitters would either stamp or sign their name to tables they fitted.
One particular table comes to mind, it was an old Burroughes & Watts table I covered in Cobh Co. Cork about 30 years ago, on the inside of the cushion rail was the fitters stamp and the date 12 April 1913, that was the date the Titanic was in Cobh Harbour taking on passengers on their fated trip to America.

not sure about numbers as many of the old details were lost during the War.
photos of said table will help greatly
I have not come across a table maker called Frodsham, so could be a retailer.
The only "S Frodsham" I came across was a Syd Frodsham, Central African Billiards Agency, Zimbabwe, in the 1980s.

Good morning guys,
Please can you help me identify my table. It has number 6477 in many places and S.FRODSHAM stamped in many places. I am led to believe it is over 100 years old.
Thank you
Hugh Grantham
