One cuemaker's butts are often similar to others. Character Cue butts are not.

Wonder when WNT/MR is going to fall off the AJ Manas bandwagon. The kid doesn't have what it takes to be a top player, not yet anyway.

Barry Hearn actually said in a recent interview the Brentwood Centre needed big upgrades. Then again, who expected the London area to be so hot this time of year. Hotter in London now than in DC.

The location is much closer to London and the main UK airport, however. Got to imagine it's easier to get to, which is why so many Asians turned up.

Not needing to walk the layout

Uh oh Grampa got triggered.
When I started as a carpenter, if you couldn't walk a 3 and a half inch 2x4 second floor wall. Perhaps another occupation you should choose.
Doing the form work over interstate 5 while on a bungee harness that would leave a teather ball for the semi trucks. I walked the girders to lay the 4x8 cross members to allow the pouring of the deck married to the girders. Always at night.
Perhaps in OSHA violation but Shirley beyond the statue of limitations. I might have , forgot to tie off. At the time it seemed a hazard.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
SIR!
You Honor. Ooops/flashbacks.

they are playing on diamonds, not rassons. table conditions seems ok given the reported temperatures and lack of AC.

Any ideas on when this cue was made roughly and what are the values looking like on these Paradise cues?

Thanks Shane

That is a good looking, original Paradise. I sold one very similar quite a few years ago. I can't see the foil, as long as its an Original by Frank Paradise foil. That is what a collector should look for. Values are very tough, what I think it should be worth and sell for might not be the market because the people that really appreciate these, can't use them anymore because they might not be on the Earthly plane. Older cues are starting to lose their appeal to newer collectors, I use that term loosely. But if you get a carbon fiber shaft on that cue, I am sure you'll be ok... LOL.
