How cool do you think it would be to have a cue that was owned by a champion player?

This guy was a real player. The ladies say his cue hit like a monster.

Not "like" a monster. "Was" a Monster!
 
I have a Cue that was made by a guys father who made a cue what was in TCOM Movie.
 
The closest I ever came was letting a pro use my cue. I was taking a lesson with Earl Strickland and used my cue to demonstrate shots.
 
I have the cue CJ is using in this tournament to beat Earl Strickland in the finals of the Million Dollar Challenge in 1996 where Earl ran 11 racks to win $1,000,000 on the first day.

It was only used for this one tournament, so it has a 100% pro tournament winning success rate. Anybody want to buy it and see if it is the cue or the player? It is still in that original condition with the same LePro tip on it.

Paradise made a pair of matched cues for Dean and Dino Martin! They are owned by a collector friend of mine, and are valued over $50K!

Coolest provenance cue in my professional opinion is the frank paradise commissioned by willie mosconi for Mickey mantle....

I have yet to hear of or see any cue that beats it....

It's not the most expensive but like how predate Franklin/dpk sw have that high provenance.....that paradise is a world beater

Have you ever wondered about who all owned and played with a cue that you are currently shooting with?

It may seem silly, but I wonder about these things.

I thought about it a lot. One day I did something about it.

I had many Palmer's with players names on them. Who were they? What is the story on this cue? Is the owner still alive?

One day I found out. Just one more story in the asphalt jungle...the Fantastic Tale of the Lost Cue: http://www.palmercollector.com/Model20KerryPage.html

Almost had it.

I almost owned Louie Robert's Joss cue when he hocked to me trying to put
together enough money to play another set. But he had hocked it to 3 other
guys also. Didn't matter he never missed another ball after. I guess it would
have been a tug of war if he had lost that next set. Saw him latter at a tournament
and he only had a Muecci shaft, he said " do you have a Muecci butt I can borrow
to play this match ".
