IPDB The label on the back of the bagatelle we saw showed a picture of a full length floor-standing bagatelle identified as "Parlor Tivoli Table" by John Ellson of Albany, New York, patented April 15, 1876. The text below it indicated "This Cut Represents my No. 5 Table" advertised there as 48 inches by 18 inches. The Encyclopedia of Pinball, Vol. 1 lists this manufacturer as located in New Jersey and lists two counter games dated 1885 as Tivoli No. 1 and Tivoli No. 2. We presume Ellson moved from New Jersey to New York then made this No. 5 Table. Circa 1885. used
