I was asked to post photos of my BB, so I figured I would just show everyone the 4 cues I currently have. I have omitted my road cue, as it needs to remain "unknown"! 
Here is a shot of the butts... The cues on the left and right are both Showcase cues. The left one was my first cue and was just left at the pool hall in which I worked, so I picked it up and refinished it myself. I had Scot S. redo the finish and wrap last year. The sneaky Showcase has an outstanding hit and is a great cue for rough-and-tumble nights at the bar. It still has the varnish I put on it back in 1990 or so. It has tons of chalk rubbed right into the finish, so it really looks like a bar cue.
The Richard Black is called the Kiss Kue and was once owned by Helmstetter, who donated it to a charity raffle. The woman who won the cue sold it to me at a great price back in 1997. The snakewood is bordered by silver.
My Black Boar is in original condition and you can see that it is truly in new condition. It has an extremely solid hit and the cue and I have great chemistry, though we have stopped sleeping together.
