my first thoughts were a custom badge with the customer-name, but the "The Express" bit is different. I am wondering if it was a promotional cue (Butterworth rings a bell, he may have been a promoter of matches back in the day), also the Muncaster Cues instead of North West...
Anyone more info? interesting

Can't comment on the cue itself but I did buy a cue from this seller a couple of years ago....A maple shafted northwest cue with a 6.5mm tip :snooker: A good seller to deal with considering I had to send it back to him because it had a bend it the 8" below the tip

seller sounds good.. about the cue, what then he bent it back and sent it back to you?

bit of a shame if you liked the cue. i got a few old bendy ones through the post, they were 50 each but i simply put them right now they play really well

The cue was alright, not a fussy cue in any way really and typical on Northwest cues in my experience, splice points not exactly bang on and the finish was a little dull but was nicely balanced and a player.

I'm not adverse to straightening a cue myself but this one was bent due to the tip being taken down without much thought to how the wood would react. The bend will always return

i know the bend you mean. always annoying when the cue plays well
