I was sorry to read this! I spoke to Enzo when he received his diagnosis. He seemed calm and at peace. When I went to call him again his number was disconnected. Enzo and I were friends for probably 40+ years. We knew each other from the track, the rack and all kinds of action around Detroit...

Coker not Corker! Trying to figure out how to edit my misspelling.

Nice HP-1 + Red Dot Shaft 8/10 been played with but very nice $375 shipped in U.S.

For Sale best offer early Corker, nice shape. 2 shafts, straight hits well.

Cecil It was horrible to hear of Cecil's death a few days ago. A friend of mine called me and said "I hear your man died". I hadn't been in contact with Cecil for probably 30 years. But always asked a mutual friend Schooly about him. Reading some of these stories were entertaining and brought...

I appreciate all of your help. I play with an Adams cue, in fact I have posted photos of it to this site. I wasn't aware that a different joint was used. Perhaps it has been re-wrapped and the signature re-moved and re-Finnish or perhaps it was a prototype. Does anyone know if the Adams line was...

I thought the same initially. But I don't think it is. The area between the wrap and but is almost a dark rosewood not ebony. The points are brown, not ebony. The joint is not an Adams joint, on this cue the pin come to more of a point then an Adams cue where the pin is more blunted. The wrap...

It came from an estate in Oak Park, MI. There are no markings anywhere.

I'd appreciate any one helping me identify this cue. Other then what you can see in the photos it has a round brown bumper at the base with a screw in the center. It's birds eye maple, The points are close to perfect and symmetrical.The circular inlays are pearl. The shaft has a brass insert...

Here are some photos of some Helmstetter/Adams cue's I bought from Carl Conlon over a quarter of a century ago at the Michigan Union.

This is pretty correct. I bought many cues from Carl while I was at U of M in the early 80's. Carl was a great billiard player and a hell of an all around nice guy.

This is a great buy, none so far in Michigan :(

I picked this cue up at an estate sale. It came in a black leather Brunswick crown fly fishing style case with a green felt interior. I'm guessing the cue is from the early 60's. Thanks.

Could any one please help me identify this cue? Thanks!
