I have what I believe is a very early FP based on the description in the billiard encyclopedia of cues he made when he began. Brass joint with brass ring as well as the various color plastics. Mahogany or walnut butt with black and gray string wrap. unfortunately no shaft. It may be here among all the other pieces and parts or I may have never had it. I got most of my cues with old tables I have bought over the last 30 years or so and this has been here a long time. I never realized it may be a great find. I showed it to a couple collectors at Valley Forge in March and they thought it could be. so I would like to find someone who specializes in his cues.
