Old Brunswick 8 pt cue ID please

[Killer Miller]

Does anyone know anything about this cue? Year, original price, current value?
The shaft is warped , the butt rolls fairly straight, it has a big B logo in a clear insert in the butt sleeve, the brunswick name stamp is not worn at all, 2 box windows on the butt sleeve.
More pix if you need them.

Thanks!!!

It's a poorly made Taiwan import from the mid 1970's. Brunswick had these made with their name and it was all over. Sorry, they're not worth much.

I totally agree with you Chris, these cue were made in Taiwan and for Brunswick and they are really not worth anything unless they are still straight and some one uses them as a player.

Take care

Both these gents are spot on...... but that one looks to be in good shape and is still interesting. Even though it has little value its fun to look at.:wink:

Hahaha, I was so hoping someone would say these were worth a small fortune, as I was given one by a friend who was cleaning out a basement a few months ago.

Heck, I'll just tell my friends it's a super rare hand made antique cue anyways ... way more fun that way.

Thanks guys, I knew I could get answers here. Too bad it's not a keeper.

What would really be valuable is the machinery that was used to make the splices. I wonder if Brunswick shipped all of their old equipment overseas?

That's a pretty cool design. Too bad it's a cheap-o from Taiwan.
