Any ideas?

Very unusual, especially for it’s age, 60“ cue with a 28.5”/31.5” split.

Looks like ivory ferrule.

Brazilian rosewood.

Insert, I think, is aluminum.

Doesn’t seem to have had a bumper.

Labeled “HC-110” - Unusual for a possible Helmstetter... Gordon Hart, maybe?

28.5in butt was standard then ( 57in cue were standard ) 28.5 + 28.5. If you wanted a longer cue you had to have the cuemaker make a longer shaft on the 28.5 butt.
They didn't play very well as the long shaft and the short butt didn't balance well and the shaft had a lot of 'whip' in it.

Well, I have been away for a while. Found this while searching and catching up on things. I am collecting Gandy. Do you have this cue? Interested in selling it?
