junk, stay off the auction sites if you don't know what your buying...

Brunswick Heritage are just reboxed Aramith Crown Standards at a slightly higher price. Still a good ball, just not at the same level as the Super Pro or Tournaments which are Aramith's highest-quality balls right now.

J.E. Came made it. J.E. Came was one of the largest competitors to JMBB and HW Collender on the East Coast. The only other maker that could turn out something like that would be O.L. Briggs

It's only a proper noun if you own a cue like it...;)

Language, not cue type. Simplified Chinese is what Modern China uses as its primary language vs the more complex Traditional Chinese. Taiwan not being interested in anything China wants to do only does traditional Chinese. So my point was if the writing was simplified then it had to be...

About 40 years older than that cue... and the lucite section is solid and acts a magnifier so this can double as your readers when you're trying to order food before league play...

Why is everytime one of these old threads get bumped it just becomes depressing... I feel like all new joiners need to read a post that says if you bump a thread older than seven years there is a strong chance most of the posters in it have passed.... So don't.

It has to be mainland China, Taiwan does not do simplified.

Says the man who plays with three predators, well I grant you that you know junk...

I was going to say that too but figured I would stick to the Mandarin sig.

I've picked up both some great and some weird estate finds since I started collecting cues but this thing takes the cake. Old Brunswick-style joint, silk Palmer-style wrap, and a butt that has a Rich (Sol or Abe) vibe to it. I have never seen anything like that clear lucite section in the...

Looks like Mandarin handwriting on the butt. I was going to say it looked Philipano but maybe it's Chinese or Taiwanese When you use Google Translate on simplified Chinese it says the word is Acid

I play APA at Side Pockets Lee's Summit

So I have two different colorways of the N100 and I did not pay more $130 for either. On eBay, these older post-window Vikings tend to sell anywhere from $150 to $190 Anything higher than that and they sit, there are two up now in the $250 range and they have been relisted multiple times each.

I heard the photos kept warping...

It's a color variation of an N100 cue, sold for MSRP of $100

SBE is the only one I know of and it's in Philly. Having said that you can go to pretty much any large regional tournament and there will be three maybe four makers with tables and a smattering of vendors. So find a large tourny in Chicago and it will get you close to what you're looking for...

So this question has been answered in the Hubler Collectors Facebook group where there are a couple of former employees that are members of the group. The "Cue by Huebler" without the USA was first but only for a year or two before the Made in the USA was added. NO Huebler cue was EVER made...

Ah there was an auction with a set of NOS Aramith poker that went for $25 I was hoping you had snagged that set. I have two full sets and a partial so picking up a third was not in the cards. Plus I'm saving all my pennies for something else.

These were made by Hyatt/ABB for Brunswick, and there in pretty rough shape.
