  • this as a old bone ferrule

    Comment


    • I hear you Bill. It's getting tough now mate

      Stunning Cook cue there Gary. Can the top half of the bone ferrule unscrew? You grab this awesome find at a car boot?

      • I don't think it's ever been easier to find old cues, eBay is full of them.
        Of course anything immaculate or very rare and the deepest pocket wins, it's always been like that, but that's life.

          • We do! I got the two bone/ivory badged cues with a table I bought recently - I already had the plastic badge example.
            The two earlier cues have huge butts, slightly different badges too, I'm not sure which is most common.

                The ones that I have seen have ivory badges mostly so I'd say plastic is more rare but I could be wrong

                Out of the 2 bone badges the one on the right is probably rarer of the 2

                • Here's another which came with the table, don't know anything about the maker - it looks old by the size of the butt.

                  • A couple of cues going up for sale shortly...
                    The 138 has the fattest butt I've ever seen for a Joe Davis cue, must have been ordered that was I believe.

                          • don't bother with the TSF attachment feature, use something like photobucket, upload your images to there, then select the each image and copy the IMG code (not the url) and paste that into your post to display the image
                            Up the TSF! :snooker:

                              An inch short you you John! Specs on the website - I've acquired another cue less perfect but a nice story hence this one has to go. Probably the best I've ever seen condition wise - so obviously not cheap.
