Excerpt from The Rise and Progress of the Game of Billiards: Illustrated, With Rules of the Game; Hints on the Care of Billiard Table, &C Another great defect was the disproportionate height of the cushion, which, when a ball lay against it, necessitated an almostvertical application of the cue, and caused the player, when his hall was cushioned, to lose ninety - nine shots out of every hundred. On account of the materials of which their cushions were 'made, the old-school'tmanu facturers were obliged to make them of this extrava gant height, or the ball would fly over the table at every shot. Again - in the India rubber cushion for instance the imbedding of the ball in the material made the produc tion of correct angles an utter impossibility. The appended diagram will illustrate these observations. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
