Cue ID please Tad?

[Fatboy]

I have a very early, pre numbers, Tad Merry Widow- It authentic and ive owned 6-7 Tad’s. what’s a fair value ? Thx D

I’m kinda guessing but I think $1800ish, maybe a hair more. They have went up more than the 4 or 8pt Tads. But I’m not 100% certain that’s the number. Should be close tho.

I have one I played with for years-I mean really played with. Had Jerry Franklyn refinish if with out touching the wrap. He passed away shortly after that-I retired the cue-its in my permanent collection. I paid $950 in 1990 for it.

Tads are among my favorite cues.

Not sure. I own 10-12 Tads. Looks a bit off to me. I have 60’s-90’s cues

I got a tad bem in early 80s at his shop. There was no markings but Tad always made the shaft 1/2 " longer.

Is Fred still there? Last I heard he was. I last saw Mr Tad at the BCA trade show the year before he passed away. I met him once before a couple years at the same show in Vegas.
