You will never be as cool as a triple window Viking!

Those are awesome. Nice cases, too.

Thanks guy's..The top cue has Palmer points, and the lower one has Burton Spain points. I couldn't resist getting the matching Fellini cases for them.

Jay,

If you found those in the dumpster behind Hank's, then I think they are my cues.

Nice cues & cases

Nice! I have an old window Viking 4 pt 4 veneer cue with the super joint as well. Nice baseball bat! Great old cues. Normally all you see floating around of this vintage are the plain janes or the old 3 pointers.

Nice cues Jayman, what are the value on these model cues?

Viking Cues did all of the work. the blonde wrap came from Chris Hightower and was installed by Viking. The workmanship is absolutely flawless.

It had to be done!!

One great thing about both of them, Is that neither one of them has that fat butt that was so common back then. They are the same size as most modern cues or maybe even just a touch thinner than some of them.

Still have the McD. c-6? I may be interested in buying it back.

I don't really know how to judge that for certain, Because these are more or less the very top of the line early Vikings with some unusual pedigree's.
There is no record of Gorden Hart ever buying any blanks from Eugene Balner, But yet here is a top end cue with one of their blanks? or the Deluxe Champion cue with a Burton Spain blank that may well be the only one of it's kind surviving today.

I have quite a bit invested in them to acquire them, then restore and preserve them. Both were very well used by their original owners and required some attention. I have my thoughts on what I would ask if I ever decided to sell them, But they are quite unique and are more or less priceless to me.

I would like to extend a special thanks to Chris Tate for his help and thoughts on the origin of the Champion cue, And to Hunter for letting me acquire the much needed tan Fellini case to complete the set.
