Your welcome.
Its a McKernan case. Made in the 80's I believe. He made a case for the Color of Money movie. If you look at the case in the movie it has the same leather handle as this one.
See this link for another nice one:

Couldn't resist. Thought I would show my case since in the last post someone wanted to know what the scuffer looked like.
I do have an neat cue in the case. Will show pics of it later....
Hope you guys enjoy the pics :smile:
Ok, I suck at iding cues but I'll give it a shot.
These are a he'll of a lot better cues then the first group.
The first one I personally don't like that style. I've seen many before but I don't remember who makes them. It's not junk though.....Adams???
Second one looks like a Rich, I have...
Sorry for the delay, I'm in the middle of moving.
Oh, well. They can't all be gems. I still like it though, I also have a few odd ball imports in the collection.
Chris,
Butt: 28 1/8" not including screw
Shaft: 29". Not including pilot
Just a guess but maybe Adams???
Recent eBay purchase, I really liked the design.
8 Points (4 high 4 low) with MOP dot on each large one. Neat ring work. Not sure what you call the MOP shape on the butt sleeve... a cog? Pin is 5/16" x 18.
Chopdoc, your prob right. I have one or two real old ones that I could swear are Rich cues but there quit different then all the others I have seen. When I unpack I will take some pics for you guys. -J
Wow, great info thanks. I always thought they were Japan made, which is still not a bad thing....look at Adam cues of the period. Good Job Gene!
Anyway, some more Rich cues just came in:
Thanks, yea the carved wood one is a Sampiao type Rich Q with window. I have 2 of those, the other does not have points. Speaking of the window cues, there all Imperial right? Were they made in Japan or in the US?
I love that Palmer! That recent one you bought I had bookmarked and forgot to bid:)
I got this one recently for 120. I still have no idea if it was a good buy.

Then a few months back I got this one on ebay, bad pics so I took a chance at...
I'll check that out. I agree, its kind of hard to figure out sometimes. I am in the middle of moving and my cues are all packed up. I did take 2 quick pics while I was packing.
The segmented ones in the middle are top to bottom: Window Q, Gold Logo Q and a much older unmarked but made by Saul...
Hmmm, how can you tell say an Isadore from a Saul? I have about 20 or so Rich cues. Off the top of my head, 6 window RQ cues, 1 Saul, and 4 Abe. The rest are Rich cues but I don't know which era's they fall into. -J
