Willie mosconi--in forearm--help with id of this cue-----thanks

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This cue has no other markings. I know that in 2002 escalade company, bought the rights to willie mosconis' name and likeness.

This cue is definitley older than 10 years, the patina of the wood looks like it is atleast from the 1990's--probably from the 80's.

In the butt it has a logo but not in the bottom of the butt, in the inlays it has 4 what look like "eggs" with a portion cut out and a type of hat. The bottom is all white, delrin, or ivory colored. The forearm has 4 points in white colored long triangle shaped points of the white material and inside of that is the logo again of that egg shaped person with a hat, did mosconi ever use this as his trademark of some type?? Then outside of those forearm triangles is long splice type rosewood points--four of them, they come to very sharp points, looks like better quality work.

Finally on the forearm is the name in cursive, burned or engrraved into the forearm the name, ' willie mosconi'.

Give me some help, i don't know if this is like an adams, viking or something that mosconi, was paid to endorse, but it was from the 70's, 80's, 90's.

E-mail me at michaelkennedy_1@yahoo.com or call me or pm, my #727-277-9853.

What is the name of manufacturer and what type of rarity if any and the value of this thing./

the condition is original finish in about 90%.

Without pictures of the cue you are wasting your time, but if you want an opinion here go's. Every single cue I have seen with the name Willy Mosconi on has been an import except for those few high end custom cues like the one made by Rambow which had the name written on the forearm.

I suspect by your describtion the cue you are talking about is just another import.

the others were too small and blurry

If it didn't say Mosconi on it I would say it looks like an early Meucci. But never heard of Bob making a cue dedicated to Willie. So I am with Craig on this one, my guess too is import. From the pics shown above it looks like 5/16x18 threads on the pin but too blurry to be certain. Is there a nylon insert in the shaft?

Shaft?? Is not the original--update--received cue and is import i believe

I received the cue and when took it out of case it was in reasonable shape. However after looking closely I found a chip near one of the forearm points. Unfortunately, the points are all painted on, not real splices like i thought from the pictures. Took a shot at a possible good, rare, deal. My BAD, got took for a little on this one. I'll make it up on the next deal i find. Thanks for the help!!!
