I am still looking for Santa Ana Rose's last name. She was a Jewish school teacher turned hustler and her first name was Judy.

I am also looking for the last name of Phil Spector's pool playing bodyguard who was from New York. His first name was George.

I need these names for my upcoming book, The Encyclopedia of Pool Hustlers.

For the real minutiae, the correct spelling of Jew Paul and Jersey Red's REAL last names. Brusloff? and Breitkopt? are maybes.

Red's last name was Breitkopf (unless you've read Jake Dyer's great book, hardly anybody knew he was Jewish). I THINK Paul's last name was spelled Brusslov. GF

George Brand was Spector's bodyguard/driver. He loved to play Straight Pool as well and he was my one and only regular Straight Pool opponent. We would play 50 points for $20 and the time. He never won! :wink:

It's Brusilov and Breitkopf.

Thank you brother Jay. Does Judy Meyer sound familiar re Santa Ana Rose?

The story of the lost Daytona Cobra.. The first of 6 and the only one built in entirely in America. For a long time car historians and collectors feared this car was lost. Records for this car were lost in the mid-1970s when it was sold to Phil Spector. Phil drove ths race car on the streets of Los Angeles until it would go no more . Rather than scrap it he sold it to George Brand , who gave it to his daughter. This was the car Carroll Shelby ran against Enzo Ferrari and won. A better stoy here:
