My name is Lester Petracca and i am a titlist collector. i was recently contacted by a gentleman who said he has a Luther Lassiter cue for sale. I would like to speak with the family before considering purchasing the cue. Does anyone know how i could get in touch with any one of his family. Thank you.

Have them send you some pictures and post them on here. The last time I saw him play he was playing with a fairly inexpensive Adams cue. So there's no telling what kind of cue it could be that he may have played with. It may not have been made for him just a cue he used maybe once.
I would contact member “wrldpro.”
It’s not this cue, is it?

Joshua Stevenson, the person who wrote this, says he is a great nephew of Luther Lassiter. I would try finding members of his family like this to see if they can give you a name of a relative that's older or closer kin. Lassiter is a big last name in NE NC & you shouldn't have too much trouble.
he like all players used different cues during their time. so few will ever remember for sure if it was one of his that is still alive now.
or one he just signed or someone made it for him and he sold it or gave it away.
but since it has the black tip which he used for a time likely he used it for something. and his signature looks somewhat real.
but would have been worn off if used . so maybe he had it and signed it for someone he sold it to.

I know as much as anyone about Wimpy and I am very close with his remaining family members. If you try to contact them directly they will not respond to you. They constantly have people contacted them asking for information about a lot of things about Wimpy.
