Help Identifying Year and Model of Joss Cue

I need some help to identify the model of this Joss cue I recently bought from a friend who picked up a few cues at an estate sale.

I can't seem to find this Joss cue model anywhere on the internet. I did run across a post somewhere, not sure if it was on this forum or not, that this was a model sold exclusively by a retailer. I can't find that post anywhere and so I don't remember the name of the retailer.

It is virtually unused and I've played with it only a couple of times.

Anyway, if anyone can recognize this model and has any info on it, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jay

I think this Joss cue is from the 1990s.

Is there nothing on the black part of the joint collar like a Joss logo?

There is a reference like the one you mentioned to in your question about the cue being part of a line made exclusively for a retailer. It said that it was from a line made for Crystal Leisure in the mid-1990s, but I don't have any visual evidence to support that.

However, the cue shown in that question is different from yours in that it has a white butt cap, the Joss logo on the joint collar, letters in the cards on the butt sleeve, and more detail in the forearm.

It is a Joss JC006 made specifically for Crystal Leisure. I do not know date, but probably around 95-96.
