NYC Cue Case

[MasterClass]

Hello Everyone

Thought I share pictures of this case which i sold earlier. It is very unique! I learn from Raist that the company is no longer in business and it was build originally for Jeanette Lee the black widow. I was pleasantly suprised when i found the concealed compartment at the back.

Hello Everyone

Is this the compartment you're talking about? The hole looks really big. Wonder what its made for?

it was the maker's version of your standard compartments. he built them INTO the case rather than leaving them outside. i'm familiar with the guy who made the cases. he played in the amsterdam leagues.

there was a lot of quality and care that went into them, but they were VERY bulky(because the the interior compartment),,,and super heavy as well. he used quality leathers.

too bad he's no longer in business. he needed a better business model.

no. not a jump cue. an accessory maybe. it was an interesting plan, but what it ended up being was a lot of wasted space. like he had a compartment for EVERYTHING. if you build a compartment for every single thing, then every single thing takes up space.

Looks to me like a cue ball would sit in there nicely.
