Here are a few pics of Andy and Vicki's 20th anniversary set (1989-2009) that was unveiled at the SBE last month. This is one fantastic set of cues with all the work that you would expect to see in a Gilbert, including his incredible point/veneer work....and of course done in highly figured pupleheart (his favorite wood).

Consists of the following....fancy ivory jointed 4-point playing cue with ivory, silver and engraving work, leather wrap, & 2 shafts; matching fully veneered jump-break with phenolic joint, linen wrap, & 1 shaft; and a beautiful black lizard embossed leather case by Ron Thomas with inlay work and engraving on the top.

My pictures are not so good....but these cues are beautiful in person. These are 8 veneer cues featuring white and black paper (accent) veneers as well as traditional salmon and black veneers !!

Kind of surprised that no one has posted any of these since the SBE, so I wanted to share some pics with the AZers. All 20 anniversary sets were pre-sold to collectors before the show.

**May decide to make this one available in the near future. If anyone has an interest, please let me know.

Saw these at the SBE... very nice set by Andy and Vicki. I really like the inlaid, engraved window in the Ron Thomas case... a very nice touch.
 
Gilbert cue set

Very, Very Nice Cues,
CONGRATULATIONS to Andy and His Wife for 20 years in the business"
Andy is one of the nicest people to meet ,
And His cue work is some of the Best!
 
Holy Smokes!

I always love to see the "guts" of the work. The cross section of all the pieces put together.

Very Nice work!
 
Those sets are really cool, I saw the one Andy made for Dan Tull and actually got to play a few games with the playing cue and like all of Andy's cues it played really well. Andy told Dan the he better play with the cue, Andy said he purposely did not make the cues too fancy so people would play with them.
