Not a Tasc, but I have a Szamboti style Ingram. I believe the blank is a Gus, but that would need confirming.

MA. We’ve communicated on another platform about my Schrager.

Either a Rich cue, or a Mali made by Rich.

I have a Phillippi sneaky pete with a derlin butt cap, if you’re interested.

Older Schon stl 6. Cue was a player and shows some cosmetic blemishes. Butt has some lift at the joint. Newer (12.4) shaft has some tape roll. There is movement when rolled with either shaft. To me the cue plays fine. I don’t know if the wrap is original, but it looks like Schon’s work...

MANWON/Craig Rittel 60.5”. Butt 30”/Shaft 30.5”. East Indian RW, I believe. $425 Shipped/Insured

Nice older unknown. Possibly Wayne Gunn. Maybe even Rocky Tillis. 5/16x18 rounded pin. Long yellow micarta ferrule. One small hairline near the bumper.

The pictures are from cornerstone... Why would showing pictures ripped from the internet be enough to make someone hand-over a cue? Call the local police; make sure you have your bill of sale from Grassley. ;) Honestly, this story, so far, stinks like sh*t, and it seems more likely that...

The center section of my cue seems like a different material than the top and bottom. I can’t really tell what’s going on. There may be a clear window with expanded plastic inside.

I believe #3 is a 60’s Doc Frye, and, I do believe it was made for Luther Lassiter. Besides the name, the matte-black ferrule and joint seem right considering Lassiter’s problems with glare and reflections and his overall dislike of a white ferrule. I had never considered that Lassiter may...

Yes, I wish I bought it. I think it was made by Burton Spain.

Can’t get enough of these… Any gems?

I just spoke to the owner of the cue, who provided the cue’s full history, and it’s exactly what it’s supposed to be: A Bushka/Frye that’s build was coordinated by a mutual friend.

Well, I don’t know who’s cue that was in the pictures, but based on that line-up, they definitely know a lot more about cues than me, and, if they said it’s a Balabushka/Frye, I’m not going to question it.

Thinking more about this, I imagine that the cue was started by Balabushka and finished by Frye. The penny date is the year Balabushka passed. If that’s the case, it would be interesting to know how and why Frye got this cue to finish and if the work was done posthumously.

What about the wrap and the penny?
