I have a very old, unopened, instructional album or lp entitled "Pocket Billiards" and below the title it says- "Take your cue from an instructor with 50 years experience. Yours for better pocket billiards, JIMMY WISE". I have researched the internet for any info on this album or pool player and have come up blank. On the front cover it shows Jimmy Wise and he's holding a pool cue that looks like an old Willie Hoppe. This guy looks to be 65-80yrs old in the picture. From the looks of the album and the cue, I would say it's from the sixties. Can anyone give me any info, please.

I believe Jimmy Wise was married to Dorothy Wise, the world champion woman player.

Jimmy was married to Dorothy Wise, (5) time U.S, open champ and a Brilliant player,
Do you still have the LP. this man was also mygrand father (step) as he was Dorothy's 2nd husband unfortunately he passed away when I was very young. Best guess is '64-'65.

I think Jimmy Wise was Dorothy Wise husband.
Dorothy Wise is in the womens hall of fame.
They owned a poolroom in Northern California back in the 60's.
I knew Dorothy but never met her husband Jimmy. Heard he taught
Dorothy though.
