The Old Cue Thread

Very nice additions Bill, not for sale I take it

No, sorry Kev. At the moment, it's new cues out, old cues in.

What you need is a nice TW or rogibear 005.

Couple of nice old Taylor's balanced cues, both hand spliced, one ebony butt, the latest rosewood butt.

Good finds. Very nice cues.

Dean is offering good advice . The Peall is a nice cue and the Macassar on the JD on the right is good . Original spec is more important to a collector , but someone looking for a player has a different viewpoint . E- bay , advanced search , completed listings can give you a guide to current values e.g. a JD 600 went for £102 at the end of September . I cant tell if yours is a 500 or 600 because of the badges condition , but I can still use this as an example.

thanks for the help!

yup, I do admit they are not in pristine conditions. My father is getting old & the cues are neglected badly. Not much TLC from him anymore

welcome to TSF
I would start with these websites, they may not be the most uptodate sites but the information is good.
vintagebilliards.co.uk
www.thecuecollector.com
www.oldcues.co.uk
www.cuesnviews.co.uk

values = whatever anyone is prepared to pay
seriously, the condition of these cues/badges is not good and will badly affect any value

Hi everyone! I am new to this forum, please pardon me if i have posted in the wrong folder. Any advice & guidance is much appreciated. Can anyone help with these cues value & history? -

1. Joe Davies 600 Century Break Cue
2. The Walter Lindrum (world champion cue Break 4.137)
3. The PEALL Record Cue (Break 3304) W.J. Peall
4. Joe Davis Champion (i can't make out the rest of the words on the tag because it is faded)

Our very own Andy Travis, or Jim Evans - he did one for me.

I have a Joe Davis 114 cue which has been shortened at some point, probably could do with a whole new butt made as the splices are splitting and to make back to 57".

Who could do such a job at a reasonable price?

I have had an old one piece cue arrive just wrapped in brown paper, intact and very nice

miracles do happen!

Dodgy info from my cue inspector, the tube was plastic... but this is how it came!

...It survived, lovely cue too.
