Really Signed?

With the new photo, I will say it is a McDermott.

I don't know who wrote on the forearm though.

Looks fake to me. I've never seen a McDermott that didn't have the clover on the butt.
 
Somebody wrote on a pool cue. :rolleyes:

Is it a McDermott? I thought those earlier ones had a different bumper, brown in fact. But I won't rule it out being a McDermott yet....it does have a 3/8x10 pin.....
 
I'm no expert on cues, but why would McDermitt make a cue in '06 without their logo? That being said, I think it is a fake. None the less, it is only selling for $6.01 at this point.
 
This is a real Mc Dermott!
I was a Mc Dermott dealer and sold these cues, wich came straight from the Factory.

A guy in my club still play's with one.
I could take a picture of the signature.

If you win it you won't regret, these are good cues.

There is also the possiblity of someone named mcdermott making a sneaky pete out of a house cue.There are other people named mcdermott.Just saying.
 
I really, really doubt it. Why would it be hand written {printed, in this case} and shipped without a logo. I don't remember McDermotts with brass inserts in the shaft though I could be wrong about that. Even if it is a McDermott I don't think it's anything special.

You would be surprised what the import cues can be bought for. That may be all the cue cost. I used to buy Sneaky Pete cues for under $10.00 that looked like they cost $80.00 or $100.00. I would sell them as used cues one at a time when I would travel. I could walk in any bar or pool room and get from $30 to $50 with my eyes closed making a nice profit. Many times I could get rid of a dozen or more in a day. I often made more hustling the cues then I did playing pool. These were nice Valley cues by the way that were very well made.

McDermott sneakies definitely had brass inserts. :smile:

Just checked it is the exact same signature as i mentioned.
It is the real deal, it also has the clover on the butt just like the one in the pictures in the ebay link.

Real cue, trust me.

I have never seen one either. It would not solve the problem of the joint splitting, if anything it would make it worse because of the large hole needed for the insert. Joint collars are the only thing that can keep the joint from splitting. In fact, years ago McDermott stopped selling SP's for that reason. They are a very reputable company about replacing cues that broke and too many were having to be replaced. They were my biggest seller when I had a pool room till they stopped making them. That was when I went to selling the Valley SP's. They were pretty good and cost about third of the McDermott cue. I sold a ton of those Valley SP's.
 
For those who haven't looked, scroll all the way through the pics on the eBay auction. There IS a pic with the McD logo !!!

I am not sure if the signature is real or not. That looks "sharpie'd" in.
