I bought these (3) cues from an estate sale last weekend...(cheap)
The 30's Oak Brunswick was pretty easy to identify- since it still had the remnants of the decal. The other (2) are unknowns. I "think" the Butterfly cue is a Brunswick also. The location of the weight-stamp "15" is exactly the same- as are most of the measurements. It's a shame it looks to have been shortened (no ferrule).
I'm particularly interested in the Mahogany cue- it's huge... I think it's a good candidate for a "period" conversion. Perhaps a leather wrap (Tiger stacked?), or some MOP dots/diamonds.
I don't believe they are particularly "collectable" due to their condition, but an estimated value would also be nice to know.
Here is a webpage with many pictures (sorry dial-uppers), description, and measurements.
