I would love to see more of the joint. For the moment I will say likely a mid 60's to early 70's Mali. Back when they came with a Mali River sticker on the forearm.
Is it worth picking up? Depends on how much they want for it. Not worth a lot. I see them go for anything from $75 to $150 on Ebay. IMHO a cue such as that in very good to excellent condition is a solid $150 cue. Nice old shaft. Might play real nice. :smile:
Of course...like 9/10 "unidentified" cues like this...it could be a Rich. :wink::grin-square:
Same value.

$175? Yeah....no.
If you are hooked you are in trouble. Bargain hunting is fun. But if you are really hooked and get serious, well, you can spend a lot of money.
I got this one for $3 at a resale shop, it was in an umbrella stand:

I put a tip on it. It plays nice.

Job? LOL!
This is what happens when you are stuck in front of a computer for years on end...:sorry:

Yes, as I said at the bottom of my post. :wink:
The pilots and pins were different on the early Mali cues.
This is a 1960's Mali pilot and pin:

If you are looking for a cool cue, check your email. :wink:
Thanks. Some kind of synthetic I believe. I don't know if it is nylon. It does not seem to be Dacron, it's softer than that, but I could be wrong.
I actually would love to know. I have a Viking Titlist conversion from around 66-67 with a red/white striped wrap like this that I would like to replace. If I can't then I might go with linen or leather. But maybe the wrap will clean up.
Here is the Viking: http://forums.azbilliards.com/showpost.php?p=5997151&postcount=10

In the mid 60's. That is a cool Viking cue .
