Anybody know the history of cue tips?
What was used during Luther Lassiter and Mosconi and Hoppe time? What was ernie putting on Gina's back in the day? What was on the first balabushkas? Maybe there is some knowledge in the billiards encyclopedia? Anyone care to share some history? Thanks ya'll. Gute Schtoss.

Here’s some history to add to evrything else posted:

But seriously thinking about doing something while I'm not working. And yes I know Chris Renfro makes his own, I just haven't gone down that road yet!
