is that same badge as the third from left of my lindrum collection,a young lindrum,only a few about.

I think Jim, yours looks more like the 2nd from left in post #38 of this thread. Farthest left one in post #38 ( and again in post #45 ) is the one which is the rarer I think. .

Sorry Jim, post overlap here.

Thanks Kev, saw a cue last night at the billiards with a similar shaped badge, but I have looked this cue up and I don't think it is the same, his was a plain ebony butt.

yeh mate, I think Billabong is right. The plain ebony butted one your referring to is a Ashcroft Willie Cook cue

There's a "J. Ashcroft & co" cue with a similar shaped badge to the Thurston's Peall Perfect .

the cue on the far left is an early Horace Lindrum picture badge cue. I was wondering if any one else has seen an example of this particular cue?
