Herb (the Superb)

[3RAILKICK]

Ran into this man at a billiard supply store in Riverside Ca.

Apparently a strong local (SoCal)BB player in 60-70's, per Herb..He say
he played damn good.


He spoke of running with/playing Swannie and Cannonball.

Smallish guy now...about 80...back then??


Name/area/nickname ring any bells with West coast veterans?

Hung and worked at MR CUES in Riverside and played at PARTYTIME after hours(7th or 8th under 91 freeway).

Wondering if anyone may know him...He had a lot of interesting stories..and dropped a lot of names..he certainly talked the talk..

Anyone???

thanks

Herb from Miami? A short older black guy with a bald head, did he mention that he learned to play in the Marines while over seas?

Close..


Skinny old white guy wearing suspenders, full head of light brown hair, combed straight back like in late 50's style, about 5' 10". Curses a lot.

Seemed like a former playa.

thanks, though

Doesn't ring a bell with me. I've been on the scene for over 55 years and all over. A picture might help. But he sounds legit. I think I would have remembered that nick name.
