I'm curious if anyone knows definitely an ID technique for telling the difference. If the SW folks are so proud to call the Kersenbrocks early SWs, then why would they not reveal any identification hints ???

if it's fancy, you can send a pic to ed young and he'll have dpk look at it.
and i would guess that the SW folks were doing what they did simply because there ARE a plethora of cues being sold the dpk southwest when the sellers don't even know. SW may or may not know positively, but they are more qualified than the dealers spouting bullshit....and if i were them, i would police all this crap too. i don't know the extent of SW's honesty of intention, but as builders and "keepers" of SW, they have every right to smack down what they think are pretenders to the name, just as barry would have every right to walk through a hall and blast every fake szamboti he sees.
considering how notorious dpk is for being a flake, and how impossible it is/was for him to turn a cue on a semi-regular basis, it would be more correct for the dealers to say they have 1980's SW cues than to mislead and say they are dpk,,,,but then, that would mean lessening the value of their SW inventory.
money talks.
