Fine Italian Cuemakers...

Let's not forget the famous olive wood supplied by the Corleone family. They don't just import olive oil.

And their cousins import Italian slate as well.

And of course we can't leave Capone Custom Cues out of this discussion...because Michael Capone really is Italian. :thumbup:

Why were "Fellini" cases so named? They were made in Texas by Texans IIRC. Maybe they liked the seriously weird movies that Fellini made. Another mystery rears its ugly head.

You forgot Capone's enforcer Nitti.
 
I would pay $20 for that cue for the pleasure of getting some laughs from it from my friends at the pool halls. If you pay $20 to go see a comedy, you'd get at least a few hours of laughs and jokes from that thing.

You people have the artistic sensabilities of a Troglodyte. You people wouldn't know Italian quality if it hit you in the face like one of your Troglodyte buddies' clubs.

To test this theory, I advise one of you to buy this fine Italian designed and built pool cue and club each other in the face with it (which just happens to be for sale on my local Milwaukee Craigslist for $20 right now):

(The "Colpo Mostro" as it is known in the motherland or "monster hit" as you Trogs like to call it is in the patented design of the long pin.)
