Ivory jointed, 3 point custom Joss cue

Just testing the waters to see what kind of price I may be able to get for this cue.

Made in the early 70's by Dan Janes, authenticated by him this year at the BCA show. Joe Salazar had it in his booth for $1800, it has two shafts (11.8 and 12.1mm I think) with Ivory ferrules, birdseye forearm with birdseye points and two black veneers.

Irish linen wrap (white with green), Ivory 3/8x10 joint and the butt sleeve is birdseye also with a thin white ring at the end. The cue was made without a bumper it seems as there is no countersunk area for one even thought the weight bolt is threaded for a screw that might hold a bumper.

The cue is dead straight, Mike Webb has done some work on this cue and can attest to it's specific's. If anyone wants pictures taken of it I will be more than happy to oblige, since it is such a specialty cue I didn't know what kind of response I would get so I didn't take any yet.

Thank you for your time.

Pictures and specifics

Okay, finally got off my lazy butt and got more information. The butt is 14.7 ounces and is in 80-90% shape, rolls fantastically. Shaft# 1 is 3.2 ounces, 12.17mm, Ivory ferrule and rolls great. Shaft# 2 is 3.1 ounces, 11.82mm, also Ivory ferruled and rolls just as well as shaft#1. Together the cue rolls very well and is exceptional given the age of this cue.

As you can see there is a knot in the wood of the forearm, I tried to take the best pictures I could of it. I have some 5 megapixel pictures if anyone wants more detail, I was limited on what I could put on the forum.

If anyone has any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Thank you for your time.
