Billiard Review: 1995 Hand of the Masters (Blast to the Past)

[TannerPruess]

Billiard Review did a small feature on the 1995 Hand of the Masters calendar. Included is all the text and pictures from the calendar. This is a must see if you have not had a chance to see the calendar. The write up on each of the 14 cue makers is a good read.

Hand of the Masters

Wasn't there also a large-format poster calendar with a photo of Balabushka and Szamboti cues and all 12 months at the bottom?

Thanks for the post

Interesting to read about their influences and how they started.
