    The billiard balls on the left used for comparison , The set on the right billiard balls numbers are sideways. I do not know if this was a mistake or if these were made this way. cannot find another set like this out there appears to be Bakelite. cue ball very light 5 ounces. The eight ball weigh 6.5 ounces other balls wait between 5.5 in 6 ounces any help identifying the set would be greatly appreciated.

      Manikin, Cool. Some of them their clothes are on so tight, hard to look for markings. Checking clothes I found one name so far. Appears to be a little boy blue doll, with a bugle attached on his right sleeve, painted shoes. The name Kurt s Adler on tag
