I know there’s one Mcdermott, 6 or 7 Mohawks, 1 players cue. A couple Jim Mandigos signed, Raymond Calvert signed and Helmsetter signed. There’s also two predator first editions with a 314 shaft. I’ve been told he cue with the mother of pearl on the but is a 1950s “Rich” cue. And two Hueblers. That’s where I’m at at the moment. I’d rather not get into what I paid at the moment but the predators alone made the purchase worth it in my opinion.
Happy hunting! I see 2 D line McDermotts, a 21 & a 26. Nice cues. The Predators are nice, too. I'm always suspect of the term "1st Edition" applied to Predators until I see a 5/16-14 joint. The Unilok came quite a bit later.
The Predator you have labeled "20" is a model that was used for quite some time by Grady Matthews in the early Predator days. He told me Allan McCarty gave it to him - he liked it a lot. So did I.

I play in an APA league and one of our players was in vegas this week and showed a pic of the Rich Cue to a dealer who said he thought it was 50's. I wasn't a 100% sure. This wood on the cue if your holding in your hand you can feel the grain and its clearly old. That I know for sure. But definitely like this cue.

This is great information. That story is cool too!! I'm excited to have these and make sure other people who enjoy pool get a part of these. I'm not familiar with joint sizes but both the predators are not Unilok. I know what those look like. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. J. Richardson
