Thanks for all your valuable input, I thought it was a Wico blank but needed some verification. I will look further into the makers you all suggested.

Hey Everyone, I am repairing this cue and I am trying to date it and find out the cuemaker for the owner. It has a mahogany handle instead of maple, and appears to be a nickel silver collar instead of stainless. The veneers and rings are vinyl or plastic. 5/16-18 pin. Does anyone have any...
