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

I just have to throw this in here. I can't remember where I seen it but years ago someone had a pencil sharpener type tendon cutter. I hate to even say this but I think it was Eddie Wheat. I believe this use to be a common tool for house cues.

When you say meucci first , do you mean the 2 points or the lead weight under the wrap?

I'm just curious, is everyone talking Butts or shafts? Sounds like both.

Not a cuemaker but maybe it had an insert that came out.

Hopefully it's a successful road player. If it shows up with any extra cash I might mail out a couple of my good shooters.😉
