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

1
I recently picked up this vintage cue and believe it to be an older Adam based on its construction and styling. Another member (thanks, Chopdoc!) suggested I post it here, as there are several members who may be able to help identify the exact model and production years.

I’d appreciate any information regarding the model designation, approximate year of manufacture, or a catalog reference if anyone recognizes it.

Specifications:

• Overall Length: 58”
• Weight: 17.0 oz
• Ferrule: 11.7 mm
• Oversized brass piloted joint with coarse-thread pin
• White/black Irish linen wrap
• Original matching shaft and ring pattern

I’ve attached several detailed photos of the cue, joint, butt sleeve, and overall construction.

Thanks in advance for any information you can share!

I Hope there were 14+ players register by today! I want to see this Tournament SUPPORT by their Local players and local Billiard Rooms in Honolulu, HI. Otherwise I think Paul Frankel 3C contest, should be done to increase awareness in Hawaii from pool players to 3C players.

Check out this foul that everyone at the table missed

I agree the hit looked good based on the CB path. But I disagree about the frames. Immediately before contact, both balls are stationary. The very next frame, both balls have moved. Using the < and > keys to go frame by frame.

I think the balls are separated by the right distance at which the path of the cue ball does not tell you which ball was struck first. In any case, I think the order of hit is at least uncertain from the video. If Jasmin called it bad, which I did not hear, then I'll have to agree with her.

{That "right distance" between the two object balls is about a US quarter-dollar. If the cue ball is placed frozen to both balls, the three balls make a 90-degree L.}

How good is your Stroke?

A good variation of this drill is to freeze object ball on headrail. Shoot hard with draw double kissing and getting the cue ball to return to you. Easier to set up.

With the above drill you can hit it good but if the object ball is a hair off the center line you won't get good results even if you hit it well.
