I just today bought an exceptional Meucci Original from an AzB'er in Wanted/For Sale and, afterward, I was poking around google looking at some old Meucci's. I found the following which I had never seen before and thought I'd share it for those who also may not have seen this.
Bob Meucci made this cue for Fats in 1980. An over the top cue for the most over the top player of all time. :thumbup:
Enjoy!

General Cue Description-
Circa 1980- This ornate cue was deisnged and built by Bob Meucci for the legendary Minnesota Fats. Meucci cues are typically regarded as production cues, but many are also made by Bob himself. The cue is decorated with opals, rubies and silver filigree, which required hours of hand-work to inlay. The points appear to be Micarta or a similar material. The design is one-of-a-kind and one of the more inspired Meucci originals. Fats used the cue in various exhibitions for about a year and a half during the early 1980s. The cue has sold for $16,000, making it one of the most expensive Meucci’s ever built. Hall of Fame cuemaker made for a Hall of Fame player.
