Nice collection, Tom.

I love the design of Mark Bear's double splice cue. I think yours is the one on his website.
 
Nice collection you have there man, thanks for sharing. Out of all those cues, my favorites are the Bushka and the White...two very nice looking cues to me.
 
Humble collection...yeah right! That is an awesome collection!!! Throw a Schick in there and that would be one of the nicest collections I have ever seen posted on the this site.
 
That is a really nice collection of cues and your cue taste is awesome as well.
Thanks for sharing the pictures with us.
 
I laughed, I cried, I oogled, I coveted . . .

What a nice collection. Tap tap. :cool:
 
Beautiful collection, you are the lucky soul who acquired my previous Joel Hercek Cue. The Cocobolo Hercek (thrid cue from the left) was my playing cue at one time, regreted selling the cue.
Regards,
Charlie

it ain't humble, its all really beautiful.

congrats on the wonderful collection of cues :)
 
Nice collection. Did you just get the Hercek from Cranegod or Vinniebabarooch? I understand that only two like it were made by Joel, and I have one. Just curious. I really like your taste.

Thanks for the compliment. My Hercek does not have the spears on the points. It's got Joels leather wrap and the buttcap is ivory. It looks like there may be more than two of this style out there. This cue was bought from Bill Grassely back in February.

Tom,
Your Hercek cue did belong to me at one time, I sold the cue to Bill. The cue was completed and delivered 7/02. Joel made four cues with your design, each one of the four cues are different.
Regards,
Charlie
 
You have a sweet group of cues there!

This is true. Joel told me today that there are four with this similiar design and he has one of them. He said he will not make another one. Mine has the spears as well as the ivory butt cap.:D

Vinniebabarooch,
When you get time, please view the photos of my new Hercek Cue, it's one of one, completed the last week of July 06. Being a Hercek fan myself I think you will enjoy seeing the cue.
Regards,
Charlie (Pocono)
