    Vintage Cue???

    Looking to hear some thoughts on this, and then I’ll say what it was purchased as. It’s been refinished and the bumper is a replacement, but accurate to the original.

    Schrager Sneak Pete?

    Probably Schrager. Could be Padgett. Could be Freddie Yates. Probably not Prewitt. Looks like a carom cue.

    1981 Heubler custom shop

    Looks like a version of a classic Bill Stroud design. I think a Huebler/Joss West fan will pay a premium for it.

    Huebler or Early Meucci. The case has been discussed here in the past. They may have been imports sold by Rich co., but don’t quote me on that. You’ll have do a search “old” or “vintage case and do some digging.

    FYI: USPS Nonstandard Length Surcharge

    For those who don’t know, USPS is now charging a $15 surcharge to ship anything over 30”. I found it interesting that the ‘standard‘ medium triangular tube that they print and distribute is suddenly considered “nonstandard.”

    Predator coming out with another value line cue (Aspire)

    Boggles the mind that they still haven’t produced a true sneaky pete. Over the past 20-25 years they probably would have sold more of those than Viking and McDermott sold total cues combined.

    Can’t believe someone threw this one back.

    Was reading some stuff on how Lassiter was playing with black and red ferrules because glare from the light was hurting his eyes.

    Mosconi’s “Rambushka”

    It actually says “Rambuska” I assume Dennis Glenn made and/or applied the label.
