One last thing, i contacted the Balabushka co in Arizona. They said they own the HelmstetterCue trademark. That sounds kinda weird to me but that's what they said. Probably how they're able to use the name in an ad. I wonder if Richard is aware of this? Just doesn't sound kosher to me but i'm no lawyer, thank you very much. They must have bought it when they got the rights to the Balab. name.Cool Thanks , I Apperciate the info and that website sure does have some nice ones. I just love the look of the Balabushka design but cannot afford a real one so the replica's are for me. I am not a Pro player just a used to be good player from back in the pool room days. Thanks for the help and Info.
