[Jon P. Nusbaum]

Maker: Tim Scruggs / Brunswick Titleist Conversion

I am the original owner, purchased cue in 1956.
when Herman Rambow was still shop foreman for Brunswick.
Original cost was $18.95
Cue remained in storage, in case, at my parents home for the next 48 years.
(Would you believe the original shaft is still straight?)
Cue has been completely rebuilt.

Joint is solid ivory with Radial pin.
Purple Heart collars have two layers of brass with Ivory core.
Four points of Purple, Green, & Maple (you will notice are not faded).
Real Mother of Pearl and Ivory inlays within points.
Wrap is Purple Lizard
Butt of cue has additional Ivory and Mother of Pearl inlays.
One and 1/2" butt is solid Ivory.
Two shafts, Ivory ferrules, custom joint caps.

Just like all of you I guess I'am a certified Cue nut. Seeing all of the fine cues that the AZ members have, has always been a real treat. It shows that not only do we love the game, but cherish good equipment to play with!

Tim & Mike really did a spectactular job on rebuilding this cue for me, and your favoritable comments are proof of their great ability to create fantastic looking and hitting cues.

Thank again, JP

 

[Hit Man]

beautiful titleist

Jon, That's one heck of a fine job. I just love the still vibrant colored veneers and ivory ring work. Can't immagine how you resisted keeping it tucked away for so long without giving it to Tim and Mike! It looks like a real gem.

I got to see your cue in progress when I was down at Tim's in July, just wondering then how it was going to look when finished. Just amazing!
Good luck with the sale.

Cue

That is a fantastic job on that cue. Looks really good. The inlays complement the cue, not take away from it. Love the wrap.

I am the new owner. And I must say I'm very excited about this new acquisition.
