That's a wonderful Holiday tribute to Art! Hope you'll see that Barry gets a copy of this.
Look at that smile!!
 
Nice Collage, excellent effort. This is a wonderful way to give a tribute to someone so great like Art.
 
Hey guys,

i told Mike the story about me and that cue, hmm :rolleyes:
I had the chance to buy that cue app. a year ago at the last Billard EXPO from Bill Grassley (cornerstone).
Unfortunately i could not come up with the money at this time because there where some other cues :grin:
But as i thought back, holding that cue in my hands, it was realy one of the nicest,
most tasteful, elegant and gracious cues i ever had the chance to see and hold in my hands.

In case of that Mike and i had the idea of doing a little collage for the cue and for "Art" !! :thumbup:
I thought a piece of Pennsylvania where Art lived should be in the background.
And that Phily boathouse row at night with the lights is such a nice christmas pic,
and like you all are able to see, it realy fits great in the back of that awesome cue.

And to bring it all toghether the "smile" of Art´s face at christmas time is the real winner in my eyes. :)

Thank you for all the kind words and nice compliments,
and congrats to Mike to that fantastic piece of cue history.
(Maybe my pic is a little bit bigger :eek:)

Hi Eric:

Thanks for posting to my Cantando thread. I think that the Art Sapele wood cue should be your 4th Cantando acquisition. Happy Holidays.
