Palmer C - The Most Rare?

As far as I know, the Palmer Model C from the second catalog seems to be one of the most rare. Everyone buying Palmers in that era wanted the plexiglas window style. Even Ks, Ls, and the Supreme M seem to be around aplenty. But the Model C, I've only seen about 3 or 4 pictures of them. Here's a very good example of Gene Balner's tribute to the Rambo. Enjoy!

I dig the cue....and.....

I am getting seriously envious for what takes place on top of your desk.....:o
 
Understated beauty. Was it refinished, if so by whom? It looks spectacular.

Yes, it was an acquisition several years ago, and I had it refinished by Scott Sherbine of Proficient Billiards. Thanks for the compliment!
 
This is one of my babies. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

Enjoy,

Beautiful Palmer C! I see yours was done in Ebony, the only one that I've seen like that. I see it also has the silver nickel joint, rather than brass pictured in the second catalog. Very rare, I would say.
