Hi folks, I am new to this forum but hope to have something special to share with you. I recently found this pool cue at a thrift store hidden away in a golf bag and had to have it, I could tell it was quality right away and was intrigued by the sticker and signature in the wood along with the very fine colorized wood inlay. I did some research and quickly found this cue is very old and for it's age is in amazing condition. It appears to have little to no warp and the wood inlay is crisp as can be. The only issue is that the leather has some scuffs and one scrape, it stills reamins very tight.

I have an auction running up at ebay, it is 5 days long. I know this is worth some money but not sure if I have a 250-300$ cue here or a 1000$ cue, I would appreciate any honest insight and might be open to ending the auction for a fair offer to be completed directly through paypal or possibly another secure payment method.

The link for the auction is :

Thanks again and regards

I found out some more information about this que. The label on it with the open B dates it to the late 1940s, one of the earlier sticks. This particular label is also known as the "anamoly" label as it was never featured in commercial advertising and those cues with the label tend to be of very high quality, note the beautiful wood inlay.
