Meucci first series of cues ?
- Thread starter poolcrazy
- Start date
Im guessing the MO series, but cannot remember if that is '75 or '76..
Bob started Meucci in 1975 I believe but I also believe he made some before 1975 with a decal / sticker that said Meucci origionals (very Limited). I have a pre catalog chess cue that Bob say's he made late 1973 or early 1974 and only made 3. Meucciman79 showed Bob pictures of it, so that's how i found this info out.
(Thanks Again Meucciman79) :thumbup:

Unless 'series' is part of a trick question, Bob built his very first cues in the mid 60's.
Around this time his was building cues under the name B.M.C
By the late 60's he had taken over the cue department at National Chalk until they moved and he didn't.
He kept building cues thru the early 70's and right about 75 is when Meucci Originals became official.
Or something close to that.

Here is a brochure that I have dated 1971.

It seems pool was popular in 1971 because the headline infers that.It seems that pool being popular to some means pro players being celebrities outside of pool circles or pool culture itself. If pool is popular in their view it validates their interest in it. Thanks for the picks and the headline.
I'd like to have a few of those $9.00 original Meucci's. :grin:
Wonder what the return on those would be? 20 fold?
Great questions- Bob worked at Mcdermott,and other shops!
pm sent. I can get my hands on some very nice Bob Muec- cues from the 80' and 90's. 1 of the models was made in green and red (500 made of each only. Plus like 15 more New cues from Bob in 1987. all Origonal markings ! mark

Please tell me that if you would ever sell these that you would PM me before anything else would happen?
You have first shot if it ever go's on the market.
Have we yet established Bobs "first series of cues".. I know BMC built early cues, but havent heard anything on the series, if he had one back then.
Yea it is rgw BMC
This was just to inform some people that the MO line wasnt Bobs first line of cue he produced, However short the BMC line was it. The BMC will always be his first, thanks 9ballrob for posting the BMC Brochure(hats off to you sir)
OH and for thise that are starting to think the MO was the second line think again. He also Made a QB line while he was in Colorado in Jan 1974
(I know he started it with Huebler but he also built the cues after he left Huebler inc)here are some pics of the brochure. Im sure most havnt seen it either wernt very many of the brochures out there
Thanks everyone for your interest
