Here is my new Tascarella cue (1 of 1) I asked to be made a while back and just got it in January.This cue is made from a lot of original Balabushka parts that Pete had.This cue is an exact duplicate of Willie Mosconis famous Balabushka cue that sold for $90,000.I think Pete and Pete Jr got it exactly right.

The butt of the cue is 100% perfect with not a scratch anywhere One shaft unchalked .I played about 15 hours with 1 shaft (ran a 161 with) and the other 2 shafts about 1-2 hours each.

butt is 29 inches and shafts 29 inches
butt weighs 15.6
1 shaft at 3.7 oz
3 shafts at 4.0 oz each
all shafts right at 13mm

Price to be private and by Pm only and NO TRADES

Sir -

THAT 'TASCARELLA / BALAUSHKA TRIBUTE IS FANTASTIC!

Glad you had this done - - - - and I'm sure the Tascarellas REALLY got into BECOMING GEORGE while they were making it!!!

I attended the auction at the National Italian American Sports Hall Of Fame on May 14th, 2011 and witnessed the UNBELIEVABLE sale of that cue.

I also took a few pictures of the items that went for auction that day, INCLUDING "THE CUE"!

After the Auctioneer fees and City of Chicago sales tax, the total came to a little OVER $102,000.00!!!

A couple of interested LIVE bidders, in the audience, increased their bottom line by significant amounts, but the increases were STILL was NOT HIGH ENOUGH to outbid the 'ANONYMOUS" phone bidder. . . . .

Enjoy these pictures. . . . .maybe they will help you in your sale. . . . .

Thanks for the pictures.When the Mosconi/Bushka cue was on display in Valley Forge I was lucky enough to not only see it but the Lady in charge let me hold it and I was excited to hold the cue of the greatest 14.1 player of all time.
 
A few people on the trigger but haven't pulled it yet. don't miss out on this gorgeous Tascarella and historic cue.
 
Still available.Several trying to pull the trigger.This cue is much nicer in Person than pictures.
 
congratulations!

Who ever got this cue got a masterpiece. All week I have had this on my mind. Goes to show, you snooze , you loose. I congratulate the buyer and seller.

Phil
