Vintage Adam Cue Identification – Looking for Model, Year & Catalog Match

meucci made cues that early? if so, definitely counters my theory/question that production cues were ugly in 1970's
You might not recognize the earliest cues made by Bob Meucci.

You're comment is interesting to me because overall I don't like meucci designs, though I like some. I find them generally ugly. I own exactly one Meucci cue.

Billiards Glasses

Do yourself a favor and have your optometrist create a blended prescription of distance and close-up.
Mine spent 20 mins in a conference room placing objects 3-12 feet apart on a large conference table.

He used the portable fitting station optometrists have and we experimented different lense combinations.
After we finished, he wrote a billiards prescription to go along with my reading and distance prescriptions.

The clarity was spectacular and I see him annually for an eye exam. I relied on my Ray Ban pool glasses for
10 years and along the way he adjusted my billiards eyewear prescription so my vision was always acceptable.

The best part is you don’t need to wear goofy looking eyewear to play pool. Instead, you can pick any eyewear
frame like Maui Jim, Ray Ban or any frame you prefer. The best is your own physician maintains your prescription.

Here is my best part…in 2016, I underwent cataract surgery & just went with the standard lens instead of custom
prescription lenses. Low & behold I got lucky & my vision after surgery was 20/20 so no more eyewear for pool.

I think all production cue companies made some ugly cues back then but a lot of good looking cues were made also. There are so many more made today that I can't stand.

I always liked playing with Meucci and Joss cues but here's a 70's McDermott that I think looks great

Pia Filler hates wood shafts

I've been around too many CF products to believe that. The material isn't indestructible, and a quick Internet search revealed damaged CF shafts and requests for repair procedures.
Factual..ok. Not relevant though.

The force required to damage a carbon shaft is far greater than to damage a wood one, so the majority of dings- which are likely minor- are completely avoided with cf.
