i bought that Dale Patten off ebay. And it had a Richie Florence RF logo on the hoppe ring... perhaps when i get the cue back from Scott Sherbine i will take a couple more pics and compare notes.
I saw this cue on ebay. I think it could be an old Huebler. The pin looked like a 5/16-18, but the points look very Huebler to me. Get close up pics of the joint and collars.
Here are some pics of one I just sold to a Huebler collector. This cue was made before Huebler started marking the cues with their name. They had a little round sticker on the butt that just peeled off - the actual model numbers started with a letter "Q".
These were very early hueblers. These cues were made in the 1974- 1975 time period. Mine actually had a clear coated wrap similar to a Meucci.
Ps. - when I took these pics, I grabbed the wrong shaft.
