Challengers were typically one piece Maple cues with stained/painted points. But I have seen a few real spliced Oak cues with the Challenger decals on them. I have one myself.

1st cue from left 1940 to 45ish. 2nd 1946 to around 51. From 52 for the next 9 or 10 years would cover the 3rd label. And the fourth was from the early 60's until the green and white labels started. Just info that I have collected from the web.

Well, hell. That’s a fine looking bunch of fat butts. That Keen Shot’s label way nicer than mine. What’s the ferrule on that cue made from?

Thanks. It is nice that these four cues all have original shafts, although I am not sure that the shaft for my earliest Hoppe is original to that cue(far left).

That would be on the list! Getting the HI-RUN, CAROM KING and the MEDALIST are also on my list but they are a little hard to come across.

I thought a few of you may enjoy the four different blue label Brunswick Professionals.

I will give it a go. If he happy, I'm happy. If he ain't, he come on back on-- misery love companys, and, most time Coco gGod companies Cuebuddy>>> misses Coco too.

Please add me to the list of people who would like a copy of Jeanette Lee's book.:giggle:

Sounds like you may have the sandpaper upside down. JK, I sand a lot also. Very hard on the fingers. Glad you got your permit.

Giving up the break should be worth a ball. I have a feeling you are not playing at full speed against him, so giving up balls might just make you play harder. It may not make a difference until you have settled on 10/5

Wow, So sorry to hear this. I knew Mark and I have many mutual friends. RIP

Rocket, I am impressed! In regards to the second post in this thread....You have handled it well. Keep spinning(y)

Its been many years since I went through the Billiard Encyclopedia, I remember a painting of angles in the clouds playing on a table that had pockets. That painting dated from the late 1400's If I ever get done with a brake job on the wife's car I would like to see if I could find it again. Of...

Interesting concept. I would think that the epoxy would be too heavy compared to most common woods. suspending the mini exactly in the center while in liquid form might be a trick also. I started the mini cues after raising four kids in the Harry Potter era. I made really fancy magic wands for...

You bet. One of the cues on that page has a very similar looking joint. It is on a butterfly cue.

Fantastic collection. I do not have any but have had the chance to play with a couple. I was looking at the HR collector group on Facebook a few weeks ago, but it sounds like you already knew about that.

Not sure if it was done by Rambow, I am no expert. I have seen a few of his cues and many had a thin Ivory ring. He did use a slotted butt plate screw on many of his cues, like that one. I always wondered if he would choose the Master Stroke blanks? Are you a member of Facebook?

I watched just enough of it to watch the rest tomorrow. Thanks for the link.

And that's what you want, correct? Sheeesh

Lil piece of 240 sandpaper and a less than 3oz bottle of hand sanitizer and you are good. A little wobble on to cue will be fine if you don’t dwell on it. Think how proud you will be when win.
