Can anyone identify the cue Rempe is holding in this picture?

Thanks,

I can email a picture at very high resolution to zoom in better if it would help.

For some reason the picture doesn't show up in color on my computer... ;)

On another note, here's a little known true fact about Rempe:
Jim Rempe doesn't need to look at the shot he's making, if he did, the balls would simply run away in fear...

Hope this helps! Lol.
 
Tricky ID for sure - I second the Palmer idea, might also be a Paradise. If it is high enough in resolution to see in those windows, it will be very helpful

Not a Palmer

Not a Palmer. Certainly not any catalog Palmer. (Ctrl + to enlarge)
 
Ron sent be a pic which has great resolution and the butt sure doesn't look Palmer at all. The butt to me looks like a Rich, but I don't know if Abe made Titlists or those pearlized rings. National???

Speaking of things I don't know. Had I looked at that pic without knowing it was Rempe, I doubt if i would have guessed it. What is he about 15 here?

Great pic.

Totally off topic, but man I miss Old Forge pizza. Revello's is so good.

You can't get good pizza in Florida. This place sucks for food.

Pizza capital of the world.

My thought, too. If not a Palmer (not all Palmers made appear in their old catalogs), I thought perhaps a Ricco Cervantes, when he worked for National, or later at Gandy...

Kev,
Can you isolate the cue, crop the pic and repost the cue section?

What say you man? I thought it was two windows, but now it looks like 2 bands and maybe a little window just above the butt cap? Tell you what, if that is a window and its got "Jimmy Rempe" embossed in some foil, I'm a buyer (just sayin).

has anybody thought of KATZ cues?? there's little info on them, but it might be in the ballpark
 
Two acrylic bands for sure, with a window. I agree that a Jimmy Rempe foil cue would be pretty amazing.
 
Ron , you know King James lives only 30 minutes from us (Lake Ariel).. We can always take Jim's copy of the photo and have him autograph it and he can tell us in person what kind if cue it is.. Lol he may still have it and show it to you!
