It's George Case(s)...

Nice!

Great to see the progression over time.


What about the one with the inverted logo? Is that an unusual find? I don't remember if I have seen one with the logo upside down.

You know...I never noticed it until I lined them up to photograph them today. I've had this case for sometime and thought that was unusual too. It could be a matter of putting the lid, pocket and clasp on the wrong side of the case and they never caught it.

First "It's George" I've seen like this....

You can...however this is one of the few that does not have "It's George" enscribed on the top of the lid/case cap. They started doing that with the new ones and I for one didn't like it.

My understanding is they have now shut down production of these cases as well. So, if you see one you like...grab it because I have a feeling that this is the end of the line for these cases.

My opinion...best hard cases you can get for your $$.
 
That's a newer one? With a Fellini style latch? I say no way, that's an old one with the inverted logo. But that's just my opinion.....



As far as the newer ones, with the slightly different logo font, I didn't even know they were still making any at all. I thought they had already stopped....and not too recently. It was just an assumption on my part though.

Nick was talking about the one on the far right...when I said it was a newer one....but no big deal...

No, we were commenting on the case at the extreme right of the pics. The ones with the Fellini style locks are the older ones or rather the first group Mike came out with.
 
Ps if anyone is looking for the newer style it's George case like the one on the end....omega billiards has them for sale...no affiliation with seller just helping out fellow collectors.

Sorry guys. I was stuck on the one with the inverted logo and thought that's what was being talked about.

shot this a few days ago. sorry its a bit out of focus. all georges except the 1x2 ron thomas 2nd from right.
 
I found this old case at an estate sale today. It appears to be an early edition like the the 2nd case from the left that you posted.

It definitely looks like it was used for quite some time.

I have no idea what it might be worth, I was hoping someone could help me out with it.
