If filled it up once and needed a forklift to get it to the pool hall.
One of those Peterbuilt ones with special hydraulics.
My girlfriend wants to turn it into a suitcase.
The only thing I own billiard related that she wants.
If she promises to leave she can have it....:wave2:
Hope you had a great Christmas

Old Instroke
Very neat and unique case. Really nice job with the layout of the artwork. It's not easy balancing the border (Al Stohlman flowers) tooling with an image in the middle. It's handled very well. You can tell the tooling work was nicely done too because the details are still nice and sharp after all these years. Nice pickup! Great collectors piece.

Tooling
Thanks Cy,
Sounds like you know your leather tooling.
Wouldn't mind talking to you someday to see if you have any ideas on re-dying an old tooled Fellini I have
with Ann Gore tooled into the leather at the bottom.
Nice case, super tall, just needs a little stain work.
Peace

Any chance we can see a couple pics of the inside?

Inside
If she promises to take it and go, ha ha, see you later.
The inside may be hard to photograph, all black soft lining, with 6-soft lined dividers, 4-with elsastic to hold the butts & shafts.
Each one protects the other one.
They snap out and I think it turns into some type of a display because it came with 20-velcro & metal rings with hooks that I haven't figured out yet.
The big pocket folds out into a little accordian file and matches the outside, and another pocket has pen holders and a business card pocket.
It's like a big daytimer.
It also came with some vinyl covers with velcro that I have no idea about and the whole thing is clearly a true dealers case.
If I was a dealer I would probably know what all this stuff does.
Chris Byrne may know what it's all for and hopefully J.B. can chime in.
It is very well made inside & out and it looks like a lot of thought went into the design.
I haven't really used it becauses it causes too much commotion.
Thanks for the nice comments

Very unique case you got there Ted. The pics are coming along nicely my friend. Keep those pics coming of that increditable collection of cues & cases that you have.
I can`t help you on the girlfriend thing unless we go on the TV show ''WIFE SWAP''.
Have a great day my friend.

Wife Swap
Thanks Jeff
She would be the one that doesn't do anything except shop for candles and stuff.
Hope you had a great Christmas and the USPS finds your freaking Duff blanks.
