Hi Folks

I'm sure some of you have stashed away those great photographs John used to send out to the collectors on his list. Please break out the shoe box where they are hidden away, blow off the dust, and send me a PM. I'll trade interesting memorabilia, offer cues or cases for short $$$ or even buy them outright. I would like to fill in the gaps from my own group of Wright photos. They're not worth a lot, but I would appreciate your help on this...

If you want to send me your old Wright Cue Company pics, here is the address. I assure you, you'll get their value or more in trade from me. If you wont miss them, just send them out and I will put something cool in the mail for ya.

Good luck in your search. Sadly, the ones I had disappeared in a pool hall in Mississippi back in 2000. I had taken them with me to show them off. I loved getting those pics in the mail and it really hit me in the gut when somebody saw fit to make off with them.

I think I still have some of the letters/price lists around here but I don't have the pics to go with them. If I find the price lists you can have them if you want them.

Oh man! You are about 18 months late!

When I moved out of my old house I tossed them all. I had about 5 years with of them too including the little price list he always attached.

Sorry buddy.

I used to enjoy those pics too. I would occasionally send John a check to cover developing and postage costs. Looking at the array of beautiful exotic cues was a treat every time.
 
I've got a couple few years worth. Not willing to part with, but could possibly do some scans for you...

Another cool thing about these is seeing cues from the pics resurface today (usually at a greatly inflated cost ;) )
 
Hi all! Resurfacing this old thread as I have the same question. Anyone know of an archive where we can appreciate these old mailers or photos?
 
I still have his card and these foil prints he gave me. I used to go to his house and check out the cues he had for sale. I picked up my first Southwest from him for a whopping 275.00 wish I still had that one.
