Where did the pic come from? Seems like a good place to start.

Pretty sure those are Gen1's that were made by Cosmos in Korea. New one's are made by Aramith and are in standard colors. Might try contacting HardTimes in Sacramento. They had some of the original sets.
Thanks, Came from an AZB forum post discussing different ball markings/brands.
I'd try to walk it back from there but gczar's input also sounds promising.
Pink and brown balls? Why?
Could be the Arcos made by Cyclops, before that deal all went south.
You are correct; Arcos I's made by Cosmos in South Korea. The set in the photo is mine. I believe Oscar is the only one to get multiple sets supplied directly from Predator (being a sponsored player) for use at Hard Times Sacramento as they were never released for sale to the public. My set has never been hit and I believe them to be one of a handful of the early prototype sets. Cosmos makes their own balls for sale in the Asian market. I was able to secure a set from a contact in South Korea. These are the Cosmos Diamond Ultra C TV balls.
Cosmos also manufactured the Olhausen Signatures.

Cyclop was the second choice after a run of Acros I sets were made by Cosmos but never offered for sale to the public. I believe the Cyclop deal fell through because the Cyclop brand was discontinued when the manufacturer shifted to the Dynaspheres brand. Obviously they landed on Aramith (Saluc) as the manufacturer of the Arcos II.
At least there are no purple 5B's in sight!
Request denied.
Why do they pick on pool players?
Can you imagine if they changed the blue to purple in snooker? The queen would get involved to cure and correct such a reckless decision and preserve the heritage of snooker.
The Queen is ignoring us.
And I speak the queens English
Fatboy
Talk to Emily Frazier, the self proclaimed Queen of "Nineball". She is responsible for the atrocity with Aramith being an accessory to the crime.Why do they pick on pool players?
