The C.L. Bailey Co. was founded in the 1990's by the father and son team of Charles and Chuck Bailey, veterans of the billiards industry. In 2001, after experiencing great success in manufacturing pool tables, the Bailey's were joined by another father and son team, Jackson and Shine Lee, and started a billiards accessories and game room furniture division called The Level Best. The Level Best quickly became one of the home recreation industry's largest billiard accessory and game room furniture suppliers.
