Harry Richards cue values

[easj369]

I am one of those "played when younger and now a couple decades later im playing again" people. After almost 2 decades I started playing again a couple years ago. I've added a couple new cues to what I play with but was curious to what my old cues are possibly worth now days. I haven't really found any for sale, so any thoughts would be appreciated. By the way, these are not for sale, I'm just curious.
A 60 inch sneaky pete
Jump break in ebony with a butterfly splice which is the only one of his jump breaks I've seen with a butterfly splice.
A simple birdseye that has more figure then most I've seen and if I recall correctly he told me this was the first cue he used a radial pin in.
Thank you.

I've never heard of the maker, I think...

Nice looking cues though.

2-300 Ish each is probably what theyd sell for,

Thank you for the replies. Somehow they are basically worth what I paid for them then. I know I paid him 275 on the jump break and 350 on the birdseye. The sneaky I bought second hand in a lot so don't have much in it. It is just nice knowing what I have. Thank you again.

I have sort of an odd request:

If you feel like it, could post a picture of the screw securing the rubber bumper on the sneaky pete, or tell me if it has a square drive?

Thanks

Very nice birdseye

It is at home right now, but I'm fairly certain that bumper is threaded in without a weight bolt showing. I can confirm in a few hours.

Dufferin used a square drive

Harry Richards made a solid playing cue, really right up there with anyone better known. Have fun playing again!

Harry was from Florida east coast. Friends with Dennis Searing, so I can imagine some cue knowledge sharing. Very well built cues, solid cues. Passed away in 2016.

Please pardon the mediocre photos but this is what I could do. The bumper was threaded to fit and I cant see anything else in there.

Thanks, Mon!

The cues do look better than average to me.

That merry widow is sweet but with a wrap, trash to me!

Haha, I used to only play with cues with a wrap. Now that is my least used cue, though that birdseye is still one of the nicest pieces I've seen.
