    Yep, I talked to him many times and really wanted to visit his pool room in Washington but never did. He really was a nice guy but what I remember most about him was his beautiful dog.:thumbup:

    Signed cue There are some other TS cues available by the same seller, one does not appear to have a TS logo but a signature instead, could he have been referring to that one or one of the others.

    Jackpot...A couple Bulldogs...Bishop...and a Joiner

    Hey thank you for taking the time to make them. They all feel like they will play well. There are very few cues I have seen I didn't like. Honestly if I could afford multi-thousand dollar cues I would own some pretty gaudy ones. I'm pretty envious of some of the people on here, I'm just glad...

    Let's Post Some Joss West Cues

    Did Bill ever say how many cues he built? I seem to see a lot more of the older 70's Era logo for sale. I would assume he made less later in his career because the artistry was so high and detailed. I also wonder if he did his own cabischons.

    Jackpot...A couple Bulldogs...Bishop...and a Joiner

    First, I made one of the smart ass comments and shouldn't have. My apologies. 2 fact is a lot of old bastards like myself are dying off, it really is good to see others take an interest in billiards and billiards history. Truth is if it wasn't for newbies asking questions today no one would...

    who created the jump cue?

    What year was that Jay? I'm sure I'm not the first person to see someone jump a cueball but I can remember in 86 or 87 there was a guy at a local pool hall that had an old house cue he had cut down to around 20 inches, maybe 5 or 6 inches above the points, turned down that 5 or 6 inches to...

    Unknown Custom Cue

    I'm far from an expert, but it looks like someone trying to knock off the Gina logo. So I'm going to guess it's some sort of import.
