Cole Dickson vs. Richie Florence

Probably when Kelly first came out west, but I have no knowledge of it. I saw them together several times in L.A. area poolrooms and they never tried to make a game. They probably had a history I don't know about. I do know Kelly traveled to the Bay area in the late 1960's and maybe they met up then. Kelly was probably the favorite over a teenage Cole. He was only the best All Around player in the world at that time. Cole would have had zero chance against him at One Pocket. 9-Ball would have been a shootout.
Wise words, as usual.

Could use some help with a case I.D please!

Good evening gentlemen! It has been a long while since I've been on. Had a very very long physical recovery after a work accident. But glad to be back.

In my spare time I've been buying some cases, came across this one today and can't for the life of me remember the maker and I should! If anyone could shed some light on it for me I'd be grateful!! Might be available soon down the line if I don't keep it.
Welcome back. 😎👍

Custom Cue with Ivory

Another option , if no one will make you an ivory jointed cue is to find a 1920s 30s old Brunswick cue with an existing ivory joint and have that oversized cue butt turned down , custom designed with ringwork and inlays and wrap as your desire and have a joint pin added to the butt to accept your new shafts.
I own a 20s beautiful Rosewood oversized butt cue with an ivory joint that I am considering having this done - or I may sell it to someone with those desires.
The thing to remember is you and the seller of the Brunswick cue must reside in states with no ivory ban.
You can’t trade in ivory period when the seller or buyer reside in a state with any ivory ban, even as barter.
But you can go the route that so many do and play catch me if you can. That’s entirely up to you what to do.

Custom Cue with Ivory

Thoughts on reputable makers still using Ivory. I love the hit, and am in the market for another custom.
Any cue maker not in one of the states that has adopted an ivory ban. However, it is noteworthy that some, despite residing in a state that has not changed its laws banning ivory, have still adopted the stance of ivory is verboten. It is not worth the headaches of having to confirm every customer is abiding by their respective state laws re: ivory. There is always the chance they could get caught up in a legal mess accepting an order that amounted to a statutory offense because the customer broke the law & they abetted the crime by accepting the order. It could become a legal nightmare of a mess.
