Several people have wanted to do it. I have offered server disk space for it in the past.
It's hard to get it together. Gotta have time to do it.
Glad I could help, guys.

If you are willing to do it and keep it up I will put a link to it on The (ICA) International Cuemakers Association site.Thinking about starting a small resource website dedicated to cue brochures.
Thoughts?

I am thinking that itis a cue made prior to 1950 to 1940 and maybe 1930… The cue lathe and the routerattachment to the lathe came into play around 1960 when the cues started to haveinlays. This cue has 8 points which is rare. The joint is similar to an earlyBrunswick. I have the 1st edition of the Blue Book of Pool Cues.The encyclopedia of pool cues. My cousin Earl Strickland and I have followed theold master cue makers since 1973. This is my best guess. Maybe one of the otherbidders may know more than I. Thank you for listing and selling this old cue. (name of member omitted)

Wow. A real expert.And he has a Blue Book.
I hope you get it going.
At one time I had a repository of links. The problem was that many went away.
Example: Falcon had web pages with all their old catalogs. Gone
Joss has many of theirs online. Viking has theirs as well. McDermott has an archive.
But many that were online went away....
I am most interested in obscure and/or defunct makers.
Catalogs, brochures, and ads of old and/or antique cues, especially butterfly cues: Rieper, Katz, Saunier Wilhem, Luscher, National, J E Came, Oliver Briggs, Victor, Brunswick France, Brunswick Canada, Gauthier, Gus Adams, Schaaf, and more...
I am also looking for any old Cobra Professional ads, brochures, or catalogs. Any Gandy cue catalogs. Karl Mayer. More. ( I know the ones already posted)
.
I'll have to look through my binders to see if I have any of those. I know I don't have any Cobra, and the only Karl Mayer one I have is the one most have already seen.
