    No photos, but an advertisement for a table said it was made at Alcatraz California and was prison made. I might be seeing it with some other items tomorrow. Anyone know if this prison connection means a lot of extra value (beyond what the table would sell for on its own?) Thanks!

    Fascinating article, Yourturn...

    And appreciate the links, Brad.

    Thanks!

    So clearly does seem to add some value, prices on those two sold seemed a bit higher than I'd expect.

    I'll have to see what this looks like. I'm not really in the market for a table as I mostly sell on Ebay, but let's see exactly what it is and for how much.

    If I wind up getting it, will report back.
