Note du spécialiste

Founded in 1868, Wright and Co. operated at this address until 1876. A newspaper advertisement placed by the firm in 1870 reads: "Wright & Co. have now on sale their superior billiard and dining table combined. It can be made the proper height for either purpose by simple adjusting screw; the frame is so constructed as to be no inconvenience to the knee in sitting at the table".
