recently got this pool cue out of a storage building that i bought in mckinney,tx. I know absolutely nothing about pool cue and there are nomarkings or signature of a brand or company. im trying to find out exactly what brand/model it is and approximately how much it originally retailed or. Im pretty sure that it is a 57" break stick that has 4 detachable pieces. It also has 4 metal weights between the first and second butt peices. all help appreciated. thanks

It's not a break stick. It's a novelty item at best. Made in Taiwan, two bucks at a garage sale.

Looks a lot like an old Sears & Roebuck cue that my dad left me. I have it in the basement, and for sentimental reasons I will not get rid of mine, but the removable weight rings, woodburned handle, looks VERY similar to mine. Not a very valuable cue, maybe $20 range in the 1970's, and probably not worth any more now.

You have posted this on two forums. You are not going to get the answer you want. It is not a discovered treasure. I have seen these cues for decades.Just a toy not worth much.
 
Is that a crack pipe next to the toilet paper?? Yikes, I think the OP needs some better props...
 
Here I am worrying if my big toe is in the cue pic.
For clarification purposes only, that is a meth pipe.
Not that I know anything about it, but if anybody has any old imported bongs they need an ID on let me know.
You guys should really stick to imported cue ID's.

Lol, I never thought I'd see a swizzle stick in a cue ID photo. Maybe he just wanted the rose out of it?... :rolleyes:

That is correct, and I'd bet if this poster is not Barry from Storage Wars
buying another loser locker, this cue was really obtained from some
3 am dumpster diving. (meth heads think dumpsters are storage lockers)
