Thanks also to Quesports Dan who let me interrupt his retirement with my inquiries! He know sumpin about Sailor too. 🙏🏽

Thanks very much Mike, appreciate your input. I’ve tried to upload a couple more of the whole cue but it’s not letting me. I’ll keep trying

Couple pics

The one I acquired has the stamp on the shaft near the joint as well as stamp between the points. Just no flare.

Take a screenshot of your pic and try to upload that. Sometimes that works.

Did all Frank’s cues have the flared butt? Did any early cues not have it? I acquired one without and am trying to figure if it is original or altered. I do remember seeing some over the years having been altered due to them cracking or chipping.

That’s still a pig of a perch

I don’t know Chopdoc personally other than from here and he always gave his opinion on cue ID’s. I always wondered if he was an actual doctor, I didn’t assume from his forum name. I’m sure he’s been asked but I missed that discussion.

I did, no stamping, marks, labels. Nothing I saw.

Her father is still alive and I’ve asked her to check if he can recall the history on it.

Very interesting development. Perhaps this is why I cannot find another example on the web. Thank you

If there was a pair, I’d have more interest. It’s not junk, I saw it in person. It’s well preserved. I can’t find any info on the web, I’d like to at least know approx age.

A friend is looking to let this go, it was her father’s. She asked me to make an offer if I was interested. I have no idea. I know cues but these are out of my realm. Anyone out there have any suggestions? Thanks 🙏🏽
