Has anyone on az ever seen the $100,000 cue form bludworth and are there any pics of it out there? I think the cue got cut up by the owners wife.

Many of the folks on the board have all volumes of the Blue Book of Cues, I wonder if it could be pictured in one of those?

I have not looked at my issue of Billiard Digest in a long time, but I seem to remember a cue called the Sultan or the prince or something like that in the cues as art article.

I finally had a chance to look for it, the only cue I found is $103,000.00 The Celtic Prince by Thomas Wayne, he sold it to a foriegn buyer, it had 1500 inlays of Gold, Ivory, Gabon and Ebony. I will keep looking for the Bludworth, I have a pile of pool mags.

Never underestimate the wrath of a woman who knows how to use a band saw.

Maybe he had two made, knowing the first would be destroyed. My friend made two cases for The Color Of Money movie, because one case got tossed down a flight of stairs,lol.

Better known as the "Texas Band Saw Massacre". :smile:

Why was it destroyed?

In my quote you can find a link to the entire article. This is quick version:

Unfortunately, that record-breaking $100,000 cue was destroyed—cut to pieces with a band saw by an irate wife who caught her husband with his secretary. And they weren’t playing pool. “I suppose it was the first thing that came to her mind,” Bludworth says.

Bandsaw massacre indeed.
