Might try a black light to see if it's more legible.

I believe Bob Owen is also in Texas but I'd think he's pretty busy with his own cues. Not sure he'd be doing any refinishing.

Is Jerry Powers still around (Jerico cues)

I'd guess the Joe is a Joss @Chopdoc

Maybe you can track it down. He may remember who bought it. Who knows. I'm surprised Richard didn't come right out and say yes/no to building it. Maybe he wants it in hand or I guess it's possible he charges like Schon does now.

Should have ordered 20.

After doing some picture comparing, I'd say there's a good chance it is an early Black. Be nice to have both cues in hand to do some real comparing.

So was your dad John Laughlin the cuemaker from Houston Texas?

Yes, don't know if he's even still around. Build some back in the 90s maybe 80's

John Laughlin

I hope your wrong also, I hope it is an early black.

I guess this is a pretty obvious answer, but has anyone tried contacting Richard? Although it doesn't look like a Black to me, I've not seen many pictures of his early cues, and none in person.

Unfortunately Tikkler is no longer with us.

Yesterday must have been today not tomorrow, so today must be tomorrow's yesterday.

Here's my 88/89 Sherm Pictures are horrible, sorry
