last cochran

[deanoc]

well,at least close to the last,
As many of you know Mike and I were close friends.When he passed away he had several cues in various states of completion.Several people could actually think they had the last one.

I have 3 of the very last ones,all of the proceeds will be going to help his wife and children.These cues were about 2 weeks from finish,I don't know if
collectors prefer them as is or for me to get them finished.

If you want a true piece of pool history and collectibility while at the same time helping the widow and fatherless feel free to contact me at 214 477 7323.These cues should rapidly rise in value.One of the cues was almost finished and is very,very fancy and will fit nicely in any collection.
Its very nice to say the least.

These cues are worth more than they were since mike will not be making more,but I am not looking to ovecharge anyone,and each cue will be accompanied with a letter of thanks and certification from his wife ,Connie.

I think a picture would help your effort, and prices? Good luck with your good dead.

Dean,

Do you know who is going to finish them? I heard that maybe Cory Barnhart?

Hay guys

The three cues Mr Dean is referring to are completed. No one will be finishing anything. They are ready to go.

Mr Dean,
As I posted, a friend is looking to buy all the Cochran cues he can.
I am keeping mine. He is keeping all of his too. He just would like the chance to buy.
Ring me in the morning.
Thank you,
Nick

these 3 cues are not completely finished,they are still in baltimore and will be mailed to me soon,unless someone steps up and buys them

dennis searing has graciously offered to finish one.as far as the others go,if you wish to buy one you can buy it in its present conditionand have any maker of your choice finish the cues,all of which have ivory joints and butt plates

one of the cues is a very fancy cue.

serious buyers may call to discuss particulars,you payment will go to connie and you will recieve a letter of authenticity and appreciation from mikes widow.The 4 point cue with the hoppe ring,which is the least expensive cue,ebony into maple with veneers will sell for $3000 with all money going to Connie.This price is for the cue in its present condition which seems to suit most collectors best.

I know that my unfinished segmented wrapless handled cue will be one of the last as well as I received an email with pics from Mike literally days before he passed. At the time we were discussing possibly inlay combinations. the cue looks incredible and I have spoken with two people who are currently getting it for me out of the shop.

I am looking forward to having it finished.
