This 17A 5 point is rare and special because not many were made with ivory butt cap, ivory joint ivory ferrules with beauty rings. It is rare because as with many of my cues, My Frank Paradise with Rubino and later Tascarella Shafts, kept it in the the rack. Finally, it is rare as no more like this will be made for reasons we all know. This one is ghost signed by Ernie in one of the 5 ebony points. 19 oz, 2 13 mm shafts, one mint and one unit, original Moori tips.

For some reason this cue is nice and thin. the yellow veneer seems to change to orange and I have to check the original build sheet. :smile:

Please enjoy.

PS: cue shinnier, photographer cut gare

Alright! I'm going through a whole bag of emotions looking at your stunning cues. You, sir have a spectacular collection, one that I hope to come closer to, as I am just beginning my collection! Thank you for the inspiration!

On a side note, not real sure about this photographer you have. For sure better than I could do, but... underwhelming, I guess is the best word for it. But, that in no way diminishes the awesomeness of your wonderful collection. Please don't take offense to the above, guess I expect more from a professional photographer. Lol, or maybe your cues are so beautiful, no one could capture it.

Jon, Thanks for your comments. I started another thread with an explanation and apology. I gave up posting after about 9 cues because the pictures are so bad. The photographer was trying to cut the reflection from the finish but lost the beauty of the wood. I could not fully determine how bad until I started posting. I will soon try and get my wife to take some outdoors soon.
all the best and thanks again for your comments.
Phil
