Jim Rempe Adams Catalog(s)

[Matt_24]

I recently purchased a large lot of vintage catalogs from all kinds of builders and companies. Slowly, but surely I’ll get some of these posted on here for everyone’s reference as we hunt, collect, or simply just want to identify some of these vintage catalog cues. One day I’ll buy a scanner and do a better job. For now you have to settle for cell phone photos.

I just picked up a JR3 in trade to match my JR12. It didn't have a shaft, but luckily I had 3 spare. There's an original stock shaft, and a z2 that's been retapered a little thinner and had a modified ferrule. Those will be playing shafts for the King model, which also had a custom white delrin bumper to match the inlays. I have a Carbon no name shaft that I'll use on the Esquire. Might throw a break tip on it. They will keep each other company in the case now!

My first real cue i bought way back in college was a JR9 viscount. I loved that thing, but sold it for some dumb reason. I'm happy to have a pair now that I can actually use at a tournament. They look very complementary.

I had a 'Earl', pretty nice cue but nothing close to the Joss i moved onto. If i found one cheap enough i might buy one just for old times sake.

I love the little JIM REMPE logos. I may pick up one of these cues this year. I think i have ALL of the vintage ADAMS catalogs that came in a collection this year. If I find time, I'll go scan in everything and share.
