Here is an early Block Letter Joss w/ 2 original shafts. Ivory boxes on the butt. Comes with it's original KU Bumper as well as a NOS spare. This cue is a player! Extremely accurate feel. Ferrules are micarta and ivory. Not sure which tips are on there. There is a tiny lift on the forearm joint, but is very small and doesn't effect play at all. Tips and butt stay on table when rolled. ***Just rolled the Ivory Box cue again because the only time I ever rolled it was direct out of the shipping box. There is barely any lift at all. I mean close to not even mentioning.
I think something happens to a cue during shipping with being enclosed in bubble wrap and the hot or cold outside. It's happened to about 3 cues I've owned. After being stored properly and in the same temperature they fall back to their shape. ***
Tiny engraved name "paul" on opposite side of logo.
Comes with JPs.
Here are the exact specs:
Shaft 1 3.75oz. 12.6mm Shaft 2 3.75oz. 12mm Butt 15.2oz 57.5''
5/16 x 18 pin- very rare!
SOLD

Sending you a PM. Please put this cue on-hold for just a day or so. I think this is the JOSS that was stolen from a friend of mine a few years back. I didn't recognize it or even consider it until you mention the name engraved on it. Once he verifies this, either he or I will be buying this from you. Thanks!

Do you want a picture of the engraved name?
 
Your photos are great and should be sufficient for him to either positively or negatively identify this cue as his. Thank you for your understanding!!
 
Hope he is wrong!

I was wondering how we could trade for my old Joss with 4 shafts and the origional shipping box. I love the cue but yours is green!?
Good luck all,
Nick :)
 
Unfortunately that isn't the one. I was excited because of the ringwork and the engraving I thought it surely was his - but I was mistaken. We really appreciate you holding it for a day to give him a chance to validate. Good luck with the sale. These old ones play so good. Especially those shafts are so old and broken in. Best of luck!!

The seller is a stand up guy and this post proves it. Good luck with your sale.
 
Monte, how do you know this isn't an old Paul cue with the name "Joss" engraved on it? :grin-square:

That's a beautiful old school looking Joss and they hit a ton. Best of luck with the sale and have a great turkey day.
