The red wrap (lower section) is starting to separate too. I thought that could be an option but since 2 of 3 sections need it, my thoughts were to replace it all.
Jay, you have a nice collection of Palmers.
Barry, nice Palmers there, thanks for taking the time to post the pics. I wish my wrap wasn't separating so much as I'd prefer to leave it be.
I looked at the thread on Will Prout's Palmers....what a fantastic collection!
Yes, I'm sure it's original. I got it from the original owner Hugh McNeal, owner of Royal 8 Billiards (Va beach, Va) in late 1974. That's where I hung in my younger days. Here's some better pics.
They sure look great...thanks for posting. I just took a couple of pics to show the wrap.
Although the "whites" seem out of favor, I prefer the white w/light green flecs, at least from pics I've seen.
I checked locally & don't get a good impression on their ability regarding the Palmer. Of course I'd prefer not to ship it but can protect & insure it adequately.
The old Dacron wrap needs replacing & I want to go with Irish linen. I need a professional job on it so would appreciate any recommendations on who can do a top notch job. Looking online I note Muellers has been around a long time.
