Willie Masconie?

Question

Does anyone know if there were pool balls endorsed by or was made for Willie?

I cannot find any reference on the internet other than he signed some balls.

Answer 1

Private Collections The only thing I ever saw on the market  20 yrs ago was a stick he had made for Mickey Mantel

Answer 2

Like Indian Johnny ....all I could find is autographed pool balls. I found a trophy presented to Willie Mosconi by the BCA (I'd love to have THAT!), and several pool cues. I know that Minnesota Fats had a cue ball specially made for himself, after seeing a trick shot performed by Willie Mosconi, but I know of no pool balls made special for, or endorsed by Willie Mosconi. I found a Willie Hoppe stick for sale ---now THERE'S a piece of history!

There are so many links to list here for these items, so I'll just give you the words I used in my Google-search so you can view the same page if you're interested:

Google:  Willie Mosconi collectibles for sale or auction

I also did a search for Willie Mosconi endorsed and/or made pool balls .......only found autographed balls. I would think that Willie Mosconi would have endorsed some brand of pool balls in his day and after his retirement.

Hmmmmmmm.........

Happy searching and drooling over some fine historic collectibles!

Answer 3

No he never did if fact he denounced some of the cheap junk his name was put on
