* MANZINO * "EVOLUTION" ICCS "Peoples Choice" Best In Show

Hey AZer's,
I wanted to post some pictures of this Amazing Bob Manzino cue which was made for me. This cue was completed just in time for the ICCS show. I will be posting better pictures, but I really wanted everyone to get a quick look at this cue which exceeded all expectation I had. The amount of engraving and metal work involved has made pictures very difficult. This is a see in person cue as like "La Finestra" was.

Every year Bob tries to push the limits of creativity and execution, with this year being NO exception.
Entering this cue into the " Grand Collection" was a No Brainer for me. It is the crown Jewel of my collection.
I appreciate all Collectors, Cuemakers, and Spectators voting for this cue for the "Peoples Choice" Best In Show..

I would also like to give a personal Thank You to Bob Manzino. Bob has always let me be part of the design element of cues he has made for me. This is a special honor for me. What Bob ends up creating is truely spectacular funtional art.
Best,
Ken Kerner

Hey Paul,
We thought about making it gold. It was all about the look of the cue without caring about any expense. The decision to use jewelers grade Copper was the contrast and brilliance we were looking for. I'm sure this metal will be used more in the future..
I will get better pictures in the next day or so.. Have to mess around with lighting and the camera..
Best,
Ken Kerner

That is just insane... Bob is in a league of his own when it comes to functional art. Everyone else is playing for second.
