Help-Identify Cue Maker

Any idea who's signiture this may be?

This is a Derby City tribute cue that was bought at the tournament. The seller indicates that the cue was made by someone working on the accustats team with Pat Flemming, but cannot remember the persons name.

Is there anyway you can get some more pictures done of the whole cue? Someone may already know who's signature this is, (I know I don't...), but your second pic isn't big enough to look at.

ooops. Not sure what happen to that pic. Here are a few more.

Sorry. One more time.

The only person that I know of that made a Derby tribute cue was Sherm. I don't know if he made this cue or not..

Looks kinda like South East work in the Derby City part, but I do not recognize the signature at the bottom.

This cue was built by one of my apprentices, Billy Gibbs, who calls his cues "Classic Custom Cues". I did the engraving and inlaywork in the cue. I believe Billiards Digest interviewed him and took pictures of the cue at the Derby, so you may be able to get some better pics and info there next month.
Billy called me last night and asked if I'd help him (with the CNC work) to make another similar cue and he's supposed to be in my shop next week. If anyone wants any additional info I can hook you up then.
