www.thepalmercollector.com look at the third catalog scan- model 12- not exactly yours but similar- Palmer would make variations upon request. Your cue's butt cap may have been replaced- hence no Palmer name on your cue- joint screw would be 5/6 18, if its not; then I doubt you have a Palmer.
You said Houston, early 90s- I would bet this is an early Richard Black - he is in Texas. that's just a guess, he would have to authenticate it- but I am thinking it is one of his- someone had early Richard Black catalogs on here recently I believe.
