Does anyone have any info on these two cues? Approx value? I am told it is a first year Adams and have no idea about the Wilcox, any info on them would help.
Thanks for the time and info, in advance.

The Adam is an R/A-7B "Rambow Leather"

Very cool cue.

I do not know what years it was made or if it was strictly a "first year" cue. I do know that is a later bumper.

I found this reference for the other cue: http://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=170553

Edit: I can't seem to find anything else on Wilcox. I would love to know what the logo says on the bottom..."something" Inc.

Edit: Top right hand corner is an old ad from 2003: https://image.issuu.com/111228003220-2c16956cb4ab4fb0a7e6826cf663951a/jpg/page_11.jpg

Unusual that the "Rambow" model was done with a leather wrap, as I've usually seen it with linen from Adam. Pretty cool old cue.

All the best,

I knew about the leather version but I am not sure if I ever saw one.

It looks like there is some damage to the leather. I bet it could be repaired, refinished.

These are part of a package deal I'm working on, and didn't have any idea of the value to place to the two cues. Can y'all put an approx value? PM if you would like.
Edit. Just seen the post on the Wilcox, that gives me a idea of value, thank you! I knew AZ would shed some light!

Looks like "Stix Inc."

Grant Wilcox was the owner along with his wife Marie of Stix Billiards in Vacaville, CA. He also made cues and along with Billy Teeter, was a well respected cue maker in Northern CA.

Billy still makes cues but I am not sure about Grant.
