I D my 2 Schons

[socalplayer]

I've posted 3 views of 2 Schons I am hoping to correctly ID. The one on top I bought in the late 90's and believe it was 5 to 10 years old at that time. I thought it might be an STL13 although it looked slightly different in the rings. Then I saw an old catalog page on the net showing an SP40 that looks more like what I have.
The other one I recently bought and it has Schon LTD on the butt, but no number. I have no other info on this cue.
I would like to get the correct model numbers, approximate year of manufacture, and original list price. Or, if someone can point me to a URL or other reference it would be very much appreciated. Thanks.
This is my 1st attempt at posting pictures so I hope they turn out OK.

The top maybe a SL-14. Can you take a closer picture of the rings?

The rings look wide enough to be an SP40.

I thought that too but it's hard to tell with the picture.

More pics

First, Thanks to each for the replies. Here are 2 more pic's showing a closer view of the rings and diamonds on the forearm and butt as requested by "EEZBANK". I can send more if it will help.
The link sent by "TIDDLER" is the page I mentioned where my cue looks more like the SP40 than the STL13. Also, it mentions circa 1990 and that fits with what I was lead to believe when I bought it.
I would still like an estimate of the original list price and todays value for both cues. Does anyone know an appraiser or other reliable source I could contact?

Top cue looks like an stl-13. Bottom is an ltd but you would have to e-mail Evan at Schon to find out the exact model #.

Schon e-mail

I sent an e-mail to info@schoncues.com with pictures several days ago but no answer as yet. Probably not enough time for a reply or is it possible there is a another e-mail address I should send to?
I got a copy of the "Blue Book of Cues 2nd Edition" today but neither cue was in it.

I am about 90% sure the top cue is a SP40. Like others have said Evan Clarke will have to tell you about the bottom cue.

I agree with you. This is a SP40. On the bottom cue you could ask KOINKID or contact Omega cues. They might be able to give you the info on the retail prices as well. You might want to hold your sale up until the fall. I've found the Schon cues I've sold never bring anywhere near what I would think they should go for this time of year. Good luck.

It will take a while for Evan to respond but he will get back to you. Your cue might not have a model number because, not all LTD cues have model numbers.

Thanks again

Want to thank everyone for the info. I agree that the top cue is an SP40 as shown in the catalog pages that "TIDDLER" linked to in his post.
I'll just have to be patient and wait for a reply from Evan to the e-mail I sent. Again, thanks to all.
