WHAT CUE IS THIS???

[jdsons]

A friend just inherited this cue. No markings. Can you help to ID, please.

Joint is 3/8-10, a little longer then my other joints..

Looks like a nicely made cue that, based on the shaft's staining and patina, has definitely been played a lot. While I sincerely doubt this is the case, the inlays and points remind of a Kerry Zeiler (Zyler Cues.) If there's any ivory in it, you can definitely rule that out.

In any case, good luck with figuring out who made it. I'll definitely be watching this thread because I'd like to know too.

Are you sure there's no mark on the butt cap?
Look alot like my Jerry Olivier except that ring work

Benson? Usually I've seen Bensons with his shorter stainless joint with the black rings around it but have seen white (iv*ry?) also. Point and inlay look similar the middle sections below from his catalog...

Thanks for the information all. None of the white is IV, just the finish coming off. the half joint and longer pin have me curious. Both suggestions are solid, Benson and Jerry Oliver. I will continue the search.
