Jive said:
I love both the Melton and King's case...i hope to own a Kings case someday and am patiently waiting for my spot with Rusty to be up. Until then I can admire you're cases! Thanks for sharing.

Your pics of your great Barton are stunning, really well done. I like the Bartons in this thread (big fan of John's work) and the Meltons are fabulous (again big fan). I'm sure the Prout cases you guys are referring to are his Eastons, which I have pics of, but the quality of Jive's photography (and CMD's for that matter) make me shy to post them. I know Will generally doesn't have pics of his stuff. so here's what I have:

(pics edited out because there are better pics from the maker himself now in the thread)

Although I'm also not sure of the year.

rusty melton envelope case

this case is a new design for rusty and he think he did a great job. the very tasteful blend of different style elements really bring out the best in this case.

Thanks for the kind words Kevin.
Since I saw those nice pictures of cues taken, I've been inspired to take nicer pics so I bought myself a nice camera and some lights and gave a shot at it.

Anyhow the case that I showed actually isn't made by John Barton. It's made by a Chinese case maker here in China. Here's a thread a started when I got the case with a lot more pictures: http://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=291304
 
Please edit your entries with pictures of the cases you are nominating. And if possible who the case was made for if not you.

Best Matching Set of Cases

OK, these were done in 2010 so they don't count, but these two are the best set of cases that I've seen, compliments of Karen & John Barton.

Thanks, John!

I've seen this picture before, you have a beautiful wife and that's a blissful picture. Can see why John has this picture on his site too, best marketing is to have a genuine happy camper! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you, Jive! Diane's pretty cute for a girl :). Wishing you and your family a happy holiday season and a happy New Year!

Our picture on John's website was replaced by a pretty cool cartoon, but it was really fun when Di navigated to their site and saw our picture there - she shrieked.

Thanks for sharing!

My Dearest Kenny,

I cherish the time we spent this fall in Chicago. Your smile, your laugh, the way you looked at me....

It's Christmas in 2 days and you could set my heart at ease by making that Melton a Christmas present from you to me. Perhaps that would ease my pain.

Yours,
Tro

(Think he bought it? :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D )
