It’s my understanding that these cues are very desirable in the Indiana area; other than that, I don’t know much about the maker.

Valley conversion.

Straight together and apart.

Hand-rubbed finish.

Solid natural joint with a Schick-style brass 3/8x10 pin.

Natural ferrule.

58.5” - 29.5” butt/29” shaft. 18.2 oz.

The cue is on the thin side: It is .76” at the joint and 1.15” at the base of the butt cap.

For comparison, a newer Joss is .83” at the joint and 1.26” at the butt cap.

With the maker’s permission, the signature has been traced over with a wood burning pen by the original owner.

I don’t know how to describe the shaft taper. I‘d say that it is somewhere between a pro taper and what you’d find on a house cue.

It does play great, and it definitely has that “all business” look that certain players go for.

Butt: 29.5”. 14.1 oz..

Shaft: 29”. 4.1oz.. 12.2 mm..
