Anyone have any pics of any cues made by Bob Runde prior to him co-founding Schon? THx

How's this one. I'm original owner and got it just as Schon cues was just becoming a brand.

Love that cue BigFish! I really like how those maple windows in ebony on the butt sleeve look with the plain birdseye forearm.

Very cool to see BigFish, Did you buy it at Romines from Terry? I also have one that is not marked Schon that I got from the original owner who got it from Romines with no name on the butt cap. Evan has looked at it and said it was built by Bob even though it does not have the Schon markings. After speaking to Bob and the original owner of the cue it has been determined it was a Runde cue built prior to Schon being a company and sold at Romines in approx 1979. This one will never be for sale.

Beautiful cue but I was hoping to see cues built by Bob prior to him and Terry Romine starting Schon.

Just find an early 70's McDermott catalog...with M/R models.
