John Robinson
All white is ivory and blue is dyed ivory!
Guess that most of younger generation have never heard of him but to older guys and to collectors Robinson cues are very well known and highly sought after.
John was born in Arkansas but moved to California. He was taught by Harvey Martin and used to build incredible cues. He was well known for his meticulous work and great workmanship. All his cues were built by hand and without the aid of CNC machine. Inlays were done on a manual pantograph, as are the points and John has never made spliced blank.
His cues are unique in terms of playability with nice stiff and crisp hit to them.
The pin is in the shafts. Similar to Burton Spain.
Although very few Robinson cues have ever been signed, they are easy identifiable.
Enjoy the pics!
