Isn't that Mike Cochran's logo?

Also, no disrespect intended, but you need to get better pictures for a proper ID. These are pretty bad. Too blurry. Take a sharp closeup of the logo, joint, pin, shaft inserts, and under the bumper if it is removable.

To give you a accurate answer. You need better pictures. Pictures of the joint, the shaft inserts, and the butt cap logo. Bill wasn't a prototype cue maker. He perfected the design and them went about making the cue.
