"Window" cues OTHER than Viking...?

Has anyone ever seen a "window" cue that WASN'T a Viking? I never have, but one popped up on the internet and I'm curious what to make of it.

This particular one is labeled "Elton." To me it comes off as a cheap Asian import, but that's just an unsubstantiated hunch... I'd be interested to hear if anyone else had some thoughts on it. Pictures are below.

I can't believe you found Elton John's cue.

He went all out with the gold joint and rings, ivory butt cap, and the stacked, embroidered leather tennis grip. Good find :grin:

When you see that story up on eBay next to my $1499 Buy It Now price, you can feel all warm inside and know that you inspired it. :wink::grin:

Amusingly though, it is Elton John's style... Fits right in with some of the stuff he wore. :rotflmao:

Some of the old Brunswick 2 piece have the stylised "B" in a itty bitty window

Elton was a cheap Asian import cue. I think some of them were made in Europe though. Yes, that is the brand name in the window.

I have a file on them somewhere on my old drive.

Bottom line, cheap cue.



As far as windows, numerous makers made them. (I don't have time to make a list but I am sure others will chime in.)
