    ipdb.notes
    The two examples of this game pictured here have different playfields but both have instruction cards referencing patent number 1,831,581 belonging to the Karom Golf Table Corporation. The patent drawings show a playfield matching the version that Karom identified on its instruction card as Table #41. Unfortunately, we cannot read the table number on the other playfield in the pictures that we have of it. The corporation president was Mr. R.W. Stewart and the secretary was Mr. John Simpson (1885-1932) See also the "Junior Model", Karom Golf Table Corporation's 1931 'Kew Pin Golf Table'.
