The One Pocket Hall of Fame dinner has been a great place to collect autogrpahs since the very first one -- here's a pic of two now deceased HOF members, the late Weenie Beenie, collecting one from Bugs Rucker:

Varner
George Rood

and hosts of other legends too numerous to list that come out of the woodwork for this special event at the Derby City Classic...
 
preserving autographs

What if anything do you guys use to protect autographs on cueballs? The older signatures in my collection seem to be fading some. Thanks!

I have numerous cue balls that I've gotten signed with a black Sharpie and they seem to be holding up well. I have the balls displayed in a case to keep them from getting dusty, etc. Several of them are several years old and look fine. What type of pen were yours signed with?

Only two signed cue balls on the wall next to the pool table.

I had them both signed. Would definitely like to add to the list. Some of you guys have a great collection!
 
I have a question guys, I am a massive pool fan from across the pond and unfortunately I canno't get to the major events to collect autographs from my favourite players and what I would like to know is there any way to contact players and get them to send an autograph or do the pros frown upon this?.

Any help is appreciated

Many are on myspace or have their own website. Given the nature of most pro players, I would just send an email requesting permission; then send a ball, photo, or whatever.

Save yourself the postage and just fly to Derby City Classic.
 
Thongs?
