Help with thoughts about pool cue? Possibly identify who made it?

[vintagecollectibles831]

Long shot, but I am curious if anyone here might know who made this cue?

If not, then I would still really appreciate any thoughts about the cue, based on these pictures.

These are not my pics, but it looks really interesting to me.

I love the BEM points, and the veneers, and the forearm look nice to me.

The rubber bumper looks like an 80's Viking style Bumper.

The wrap does not look like something that would be on a newer cue, and the ferrule looks like either Micarta, or maybe just very yellowed due to age.

Looks like a piloted 5/16x18(?) joint.

Thanks a lot for any thoughts about the cue.

That wrap reminds me of old Vikings, but the 5/16-18 and that bumper threw me. Could it be a Brunswick?
Irregardless, nice looking wand!! Love the inlay.

Thanks for your reply. Yeah, not a Linen wrap, right? Anyways, I just thoughts the points (Birds eye maple points) looked nice, and nice colored veneers, with a nice piece of wood in the forearm.

The Yellow ferrule seems interesting to me too. Maybe Micarta? I do not know.

I am such a fool, lol. I guess the cue might still be garbage. The butt sleeve does look cheap, but I do not know.

I always loved mystery cues, but usually find out that they are nothing special.

If it weren't for that wrap...

OP.... how's the cues hits?
Does it feel/sound good?

I'll try.

Those are cool veneer colors, I'll say that.

Someone mentioned Viking, maybe because of the mushroom bumper. That's possible. They did have rings like that. They made cues for a number of brands but lost those records between their closure and re-opening.

I'm at Disney Springs with The Crazy Redhead. I'll be in my office tonight and have a look.

It does have a number of Viking similarity including the wrap, but since the rings in the butt sleeve do not line up, makes me think not. I do like the forearm though.
