Mark Wildman Match cue

Did you know that less than a hundred Mark Wildman Match Cues were made in the late 1970s and early 1980s.

Mark Wildman was very diplomatic about it but informed me that he would have preferred the cues to have been different in some way, so stopped production of them. I bought the one with the sticker directly from him.

Mark Wildman lived in Peterborough. That’s where the second one came from courtesy of a friend who specialises in collecting Riley cues.

At that time I had heard that between fifty and a hundred had been made. When I bought the cue from Mr Wildman; I naturally asked him how many he knew of and he said no more than 30 and possibly as few as 23. This was just prior to his move to Spain.
