For the Hoppe Titlist lovers.. lets make a solid thread

[classiccues]

I see a lot of titlist threads started, and they seem to be individual cues. Looks like there was one instance of trying to get a titlist thread going and it didn't catch on. With all the classic titlist fans out there, we need to make a thread worthy of holding many titlist conversions.

So, I will start. I will post a few Bushkas and Szamboti (Gus) Conversions...

Lets get this thread a Hopp'in... :grin:

Two Balabushkas

Palmer and Paradise II

BTW there is a Black Boar titlist on ebay.

These are two of my favorites. They show the relationship of the Paradise / Palmer cue lines.

Thread dedication

I hereby dedicate this thread to the memory of Raist Chin, aka titlistsucker, from Singapore. He was a cue collector that loved the titlist conversion. He was a staple here and he passed away 6 years ago this December. I corresponded with him many times, as his passion was our passion with the "classics", and titlists.

Raist will never be forgotten and we all miss him.
