I've been continuing to research the Greenleaf and Mosconi question for an upcoming Untold Stories column. In the course of my work, I've come up with a good trivia question. Consider that Mosconi and Greenleaf played over 100 games against one another during the course of their careers. Consider also that Greenleaf was a bit older than Mosconi, and started his career somewhat earlier. So here's the question: How old was Mosconi during his very first documented match-up against Greenleaf? As a bonus, name the game and provide the score for that first match-up.
I'll send out a new copy of the Updated BCA Rules Book to the first person who can answer the questions correctly. Good luck!

Willie was 6 years, Though I've seen at least one source claim he was 7, They played, I believe, in Willie's father's pool hall, and the score according to according to Greenleaf, who won, was 50-46

Oh yeah, And I'm pretty sure it was 14.1 Straight Billiards.
