2-piece Brunswick Hoppe Cues

Please post pics of your old 2-piece Brunswick Hoppe's. This one is a 1941-45 with a personalized butt-plate. I did a minimal restoration of it, removing the decal.

That's a very nice cue. Do you know what kind of wood the butt is made from?

Thanks. I'm told it's rosewood.

Wow! I'm the only one on the board who has a 2-piece Hoppe. Since I have four, I should be able to make a mint

I've only sold one ever (except one I bought back), and I regretted it - sold a beautiful purpleheart on ebay for about $300. Probably the anomaly of letting a cue auction run to end freaked everyone out and they didn't bid! In any case, wish I had kept it. I would post pics but might get teary-eyed!

I would buy it

You might have a Rambo there. Might not. Sell it to me and it will be a perfect match for the one Jerry Rauenzahn is refinishing for me. Then we two will have two! I won't hold my breath though.
Nice find
