Help with Mottey Cue

Wow. What a great thread.

This should be put on the main forum as an example of how great this forum can be.

Well just got the news, and it is a fake. I have been hanging onto this cue for nine or ten years, unreal. I will probably just have it cut up. The part that blows is I was trying to sell it and maybe one more to give as a donation to cancer research. My brother died of Hodgkins Lymphoma two years ago, and I had been wanting to help out a bit, either to a charity or directly to a family affected by it.

Anyway, thanks for all the replies, and hopefully this doesn't happen to anyone on this board.

Tell you what I'll do. Send me your regular e-mail, name and address to jvan@classiccues.com. As long as your cue is straight, I will swap the cue out for so you can have the auction. I will send you a cue, and case, of my choosing. I will write a letter for the cue that I send you.

My brother also died of lymphoma at 18 in 1993. I'll take care of the refinish and removing the name so it doesn't get passed along.

BOTH of your brothers are smiling down SO HUGE on you two for this achievment, this is outstanding !!! Everyone says Karma is a *****, but Karma is also an angel and she will pay yall back two fold one of these days. My hat is off to both of you and everyone who contributed to this thread. I didn't have any knowledge to help with but I have been keeping up with the thread.

Agreed, Berko, this should be read by all. I am proud to be a part of this forum community that can do great things in between the aiming threads. :thumbup:

Thanks for bringing this to my, and our, attention.

One of the best threads I have ever seen on this site. Such a nice change from all the negativity in this forum sometimes. Heres to everyone who helped make this happen!
 
Absolutely first class in every regard. Great gesture and I got to tell you the cue man has raised to first place in my book ! Sorry for your loss but you did the right thing and got help from a first class guy.
 
Again thanks...

BTW the cue is in Steve Kleins shop where it will be refinished and rewrapped. Since the cue is red/white/blue I am having him inlay a MOP star and 4 dots in each point. Above the butt cap will be a ring of stars (8) with red/white and blue veneers top and bottom.

Just a little update, while the shafts were being stripped and sanded, the was a blue marker used to color in a set of the "blue" blocks. They were a yellowish color....
