If they have four colored veneers on the points, buy them as fast as you can at that price! If there are no veneers, they are probably not worth your time.

If they say Brunswick Trophy Cue on the cues butt, I would not buy them, they are mostly made in China. The last of the cues Brunswick made were produced in the late 1960's, by 1968 they had already began have their cues built by other US manufactures (Schemlke). In late 1969 all Brunswick cues became Asian import cues until the 1990's when they were again made by US Manufactures (Joss, and few others).

The Asian import cues that are two piece normally have a number on the joint and a number on the shaft, however, this was not always the case, another way to identify them is by the names on the cues butt. Some said Trophy cue, Professional, and many other names but these cues are worth very little if anything.

Did you mean to say Personal rather than Professional?

Actually some do say Personal, and some say Professional, some even say Wille Hoppe on the cue butt sleeve, but if they are in printed letters on the cue butt they are Asian made.

If they had veneers i would have grabbed them real quick,i think they weighed kinda light,15 or 16 ozs
