I just wanted to say a well deserved Congratulations to Bob Manzino for the "Silver Rapsody" which won the "Cuemakers Contest" at the ICCS...

This contest was for any cuemaker to submit a cue for consideration by the collectors.. The winning cuemaker received all the entry money and an invitation to future shows..
Bob Manzino will be the newest cuemaker to join the ICCS for this honor..
Bob's work is a welcome addition to the ICCS..

Also Congratulation to Bill Schick for winning the "Collectors Choice" award and Richard Black for winning the "Josswest Prize".
Best,
Ken Kerner

Hi Ken,

It is an awesome cue - congrats. Nice meeting you too!

Chris
 
Congrats!

Mr. Stroud throws a very classy affair. It was a great setting in which to spend quality time with great cue makers and their cues, as well as top collectors and some of the most astounding collections I have ever imagined, much less seen. And of course...what was really scary...was that they only brought a small but mighty portion of their collections.

I can only imagine the rest.

And Ken...congrats to you as well on Mr. Manzino's award and induction. Without champions of our arts, whatever they may be, none of us would get to practice them, or at least not for long, without an audience and its support.

It is a ridiculously stunning and elegant cue. And it was in phenomenal company there. All the more reason to celebrate.

It was great hangin' out with you, Ken. If ever in Los Angeles...I've got rum...and I've got Coke.

Hello Ken,
It was an awesome show and congrats on Bob Manzino's "Silver Rhapsody" cue....totally awesome. The ICCS show is worth the travel no matter where you live, the cues were the absolutely greatest in the world from the past and the present.

It was great meeting the cuemakers and the collectors, the ICCS is a wonderful concept and thank you to "Bill Stroud" for creating the ICCS.

It was great meeting some of the AZr's.....

Congrat's Ken on the cue.

Hi Scott,
It was great meeting you at the show..
Bob Manzino deserves the recognition for his beautiful work... It will be a pleasure seeing more of his work for shows to come..
The ICCS show was a huge success, and Bill and Barbara should be commended for their hard work..
Hmmm... guess I did put it in the Wanted/FS forum.. Only if someone knocked my socks off!!! No Hurry... I think this cue will be in January Billiards Digest..
Best,
Ken
