I love these old cues.

Brunswick made millions of cues. The side stories, conversions, other makers, etc are fascinating. Much history is lost or difficult to find. There are the WW2 Brunswick cues, and the post war. The famous maker conversions. And of course the beautiful early 20th century antiques. Prototypes, limited production, and others.

There is an interesting rare Brunswick on Ebay right now. Surprised nobody mentioned it here yet.

I love chasing the loose ends in cue history.

I was supposed to mention it for the seller but I got sent out of town.
I have bought more that my quota of old Brunswicks this year or I would be after it myself.
I would love to know the back story of that cue. Very special piece.

I am sure many here will suggest that it is over priced but there are many vintage cues on the auction block that higher than this cue and way less rare.

The value/price will be what a buyer is willing to pay. It is certainly a fascinating cue. I was impressed when he first showed it to me. I love the ad.

It is interesting, Like yourself I have spent years collecting pictures, articles and information on rare, and vintage cues. Lots of info saved on two computers that are not being used now. Both will still fire up but I need to find the time to save that material.
