Thank you! Any idea of when it was made or what it’s original selling price was?

I just received identification of my late husband’s Swift case 2Bx4S. And he picked it up 20 years ago in a small Kansas town for $125….along with a collector McDermott cue!!!!

My husband bought this case at a pawn shop 20 years ago for $125…and it had a McDermott M8-02 Blaze cue in it!!! He said it was worth the $$$ because it was all hand tooled/worked leather. It holds 2 butts and 4 shafts. It’s not for sale….it was Jim’s case (I have the McDermott tho!) and since...

I’m sure it doesn’t by name. And I didn’t say they were close friends. Buddy would come to Wichita and Jim would watch him shoot and talk with him a bit but they never played.

Hey! Glad to see the Cowboy Casino mentioned…my husband was the pool pro there and he booked the entertainment. Keith Whitley Shenandoah and lots more that I can’t recall at the moment.

Hi!!! Obviously I’m a newbie to this site. Was lurking for awhile and really enjoyed the stories of the old players. I hail from a very small Kansas town but have lived in Wichita for almost 11 years. My husband Jim has been my mentor, my coach, my opponent lol. We play mostly 9 ball. Winner...
