In my constant efforts to span the globe bringing only the rarest and finest collectibles to market, here's a completely original, completely intact, undamaged, unrestored mid-1960s Burton Spain Full Splice Rambow Style George Balabushka Pool Cue with 3 Original Balabushka shafts and Tascarella LOA. George made very few Rambow Style (with ivory ring) cues and even fewer were fashioned using Burton Spain full splice blanks. Add to that the 3 ivory ferruled original Balabushka shafts and the completely original condition and perhaps you can see value in this highly collectible opportunity.

Tascarella can describe this cue better than I so please see the scan of his LOA which is attached below.

In respect to the possibility that the eventual buyer might prefer some privacy, I will discuss price only by phone. I'm in California, please feel free to call me.

Thanks for looking

Kevin,
This is a great cue that NO Hoppe collection should be without. This is the absolute must have in Hoppe style. Lets see a Hoppe collector step up here...

the only thing keeping me from buying is that
my reputation for being a tightwad is not with
out some basis in truth

Kevin, that is 1 sweet cue. i'm changing my name to Kon Kureman, so maybe a few of these will cross my path. love the simplicity, especially the Hoppe ring. Dean, i know you want it, be careful you don't trip over your wallet. this is one that should be in a true collectors hands. GLWS, don
 
What a cue! I know you mentioned negotiating by phone, but I have a Varney I would consider trading straight across, if you pick up my shipping :eek:.

That is a rare find indeed, good luck with your sale.

Kevin, that is a beautiful Bushka. Very simple and classy. Good luck with the sale. I bought a titliest Bushka a little while back or I would probably be digging up some money. Take Care Randy

The name change isn't necessary. Here's the charm for getting cues:

have Joe Van say, "if you get a BLAH BLAH, let me see it". He and I were going back and forth about something and at the end he said show me any Tads you get and 2 days later I had 5 (he steered me to a sale of the biggest one too).

Thanks

Kevin
 
Very nice all original classic. Good luck with the sell. Someone will be getting a very nice collectible piece of pool history for sure.
 
Is that a typo in the thread title or was it really called a rambow?

Price Drop !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To those that called for a price on this fabulous Hoppe Spain completely original Balabushka. In respect to the fact that we are selling this cue in the present economy and market, my consignor has allowed me to drop the price of this cue $2,000 lower than the price I have been quoting.

Hopefully that will keep me off eBay with this beauty.

Please let me know if I can be of assistance.

Thanks again
