In my over 30 years of cues, I have never seen an intentional Palmer built to look like a Balabushka. Well I would have said one was possible, sure, why not. But to see one and get one... now.. that is a different hog altogether. I do think based on the history learned about Palmer, a bunch of this cue was probably made outsude the Palmer shop. Gus prongs, a prefect seemed wrap, original finish. Nice shafts... This is a gem...

AWESOME....
I like the veneers in this one.
Looks like maroon on the outside, orange, lime, natural?
Nice pickup !
 
Very nice cue. Joe, do you have an idea of when this cue was made? Or maybe 2nd or 3rd catalogue era?

All the best,
WW
