Thanks all for chiming in. Let me clarify what I was looking for.
I don't own a "Maximum" cue, I don't have one to sell, I don't want to buy one. I don't make cues, and I don't sell cues. I don't even consider myself a collector of cues. So I don't have a "dog in this fight" so to speak.
But I AM very interested pool cues. I love looking at designs, and learning the history of various lines of pool cues. It is fascinating. I can't afford to collect cues, so like someone who admires antique autos (regardless their initial quality), but can't afford to collect them, I just admire cues and their history from a distance.
It just so happens that the particular cue in my original post is one that I can't currently identify back to any original Meucci marketing/pricelist/catalog/brochure. I am asking purely out of interest in becoming more knowledgeable about the history and back stories on various lines of various pool cue manufacturers.
I know that the folks here are full of historical info, and lots of folks have or have access to old catalogs and brochures, so I thought maybe I would try a shot in the dark.
Even the replies I DID get tells me some about the general perception of the line and the manufacturer, but no, it doesn't really get me what I was looking for.
Again, thanks in advance to anyone who took/takes a minute to look through a few brochures for me.
None of the regulars (on here) seem to know the answer to your question, so maybe try asking on Open Billiard Market forum. Maybe start by asking if anyone knows how many models there were in the Maximum line of Meucci cues, and then ask if anyone has a copy of the one that can't be found anywhere online. Budget Cues archive shows that there were only 4 models made, so either that cue was a special custom order, or there is at least 1 missing brochure that budget cues does not have. I always thought that they had the biggest archive of Meucci brochures.
