This cue was the last cue he had, he made this cue in 1971. Abe has not made a cue in 5 yrs. He is the oldest living cuemaker alive, 96 yrs. old. This cue is old school.

100% Original!!!
In the photo's the shaft looks warped, it's not. Rolls straight together and apart.

I bet that thing is worth a small fortune now, or will be. Man I would like to own something like that. How long ago did you get it? Did you get it in 71?

No, I did not get it in 71.I got it in Feb. 06 when I was in Miami & went to his shop. On the bill of sales he explains the cue and when it was made. It was his last cue. He's 96.

Yeah, from what I have read he is 79-80 years old. But still, a damn nice cue.
