Help with John Parris Ultimate numbering.

That's piled up outside, so does that mean it's air dried

I bought mine in 2002 and its 522.

Mine is 1887 and I picked it up September 2011

Thanks to everyone who has helped me so far. I have also had some private messages and have now managed to very roughly work out how to date Parris Ultimates. From 2002 to 2015 John Parris has produced approximately 150 Parris Ultimates per year.
I now know roughly that the following list is pretty good:-

500 - 2002/3
650 - 2003/4
800 - 2004/5
950 - 2005/6
1100 - 2006/7
1250 - 2007/8
1400 - 2008/9
1550 - 2009/10
1700 - 2010/11
1850 - 2011/12
2000 - 2012/13
2150 - 2013/14
2300 - 2014/15
2450 - 2015/16

3 JPUs a week, not bad John. No wonder there is a huge list though. But you can't hurry quality, it has to be hand planed and hand made.

Yes you can't hurry quality especially as the bear works solely on his own on every cue....other cue makers need to take note that quality can be done with a one man team.

Why would he want to work on his own when he can teach others the skills and expand the business? Isn't that what MW does. Trev doesn't but that's his personal choice and preference and all respect to him for that. Same goes for Jim and J6.

What Parris has is that stock of Angel Ash. As long as it's made properly by someone skilled, it will play beautifully. And they do, just look at those Numbers!

That must be close to £3 million of cues. Superb biz JP!

Hand-planed 'Angel' ash stock by skilled craftsmen…priceless. Hey, MB, do you want to buy Tower Bridge? I can get you a very good price, cash upfront please...

He'll be on holiday in the US soon enough.

Rolled up tenners stashed inside a Crispian Jones case and left in the bins around the back of The Crucible. You don't want a receipt do you?
