Was taking my new tv for a test drive when on Storage Wars, regular, Barry Weiss, found what he thought was a heavy brass lamp base and pole but as he began screwing it together, he realized it was one of those antique rotating cue holders.
It was a very ornate, patenized piece complete with a twisted brass center pole and griffins.
I didn't catch which billiard expert he ended up taking this piece to but it was somewhere in Cal and was a pretty big showroom, all pool related.
The expert figured it for $4500 and added that it wouldn't be hard to find a buyer for it at that price. This, of course, made Barry's day and for this episode, he was the big winner.
By the time I went up to retrieve my camera, they were done showing the cue holder but here's Barry discussing his good fortune at the end.
