I hope I can get a good restoration on it!

Your card table was a wonderful score! You have me beat on that one. I have a 301 card table but not a FW one.

The 306 will be interesting. I am crossing my fingers it arrives safely. I sent information on packing to the seller (politely asking her to read it) and received no response. It's coming via FedEx.
There is one of these tables on eBay right now. The seller is asking $1750.00 for it. This article was written inn 1997 and claims there are only 12-13 that have been accounted for and the last one was up for sale for 2500.00
