FS: Helmstetter 87-7 Cue (Second Cue)

I am trying to get some funds together to purchase a cue from a fellow AZer. As such I am trying to sell 3 cues. This is the second cue.

I believe this to be a Helmstetter model 87-7. I had the cue refinished by Wes Hunter. He also installed a new White/Green linen wrap. Definitely old school look and feel. Includes one shaft.

Asking $300 firm (includes shipping).

Some questions have been asked about the shaft and ferrule. This is the original shaft for the cue with matching ringwork. Not sure of ferrule material but it does have a really nice yellowing to it. Definitely NOT ivory but maybe some smart folks will know..... ;-)

Here are pictures that should answer the question.

I've got an 86 series, same deal, slightly yellow, and I do not know the ferrule material either. Just retipped it, and definitely not a plastic or linen, or fiber. Recon Ivory? Micarta?

Still available alone OR as part of a package deal.....

18.75 ounces. Note: this is on a kitchen scale so may not be completely accurate.

All cues still looking for a good home......

I believe the ferrule material was made of cerosite...least that what I remember reading somewhere. My old 86-06 has one too...plays extremely well.
