Good grief, the grain on that shaft is all over the place. Is it still straight ?

It was when I sold it. It was one of 2 x cues made for someone , both with the froggy nameplate.

One was one piece, the other a 50/50 jointed cue.

I bought it from JRC750 a while ago.

I think someone on here still owns this one piece one.

Very rare this one and although i havent tried it i imagine its totaly unplayable now.

Thanks TT, looks like even if I could play with it I couldn't afford it. Would be nice to have a cue with your hometown on the badge.

Here is my contribution to the antique side of this thread...

Thurstons Ld cue that dates after 1815 and hopefully before 1914

How common are the Taylor's cues? Would quite fancy one because of the Edinburgh badge, are they ok to play with in today's conditions?
Have to agree fantastic thread, thanks for posting them up.

Very rare this one and although i havent tried it i imagine its totaly unplayable now.

Please don't start arguing on here, this is one of the few quality threads on the entire site, if you don't like it don't read it, it's as simple as that.

Agreed, I was a bit too quick to set off and create the page and used the term antique when it may have been better to use Old.

I will see about changing this to cover all bases...antique, classic, vintage etc and as many other terms that have been altered and made vague since the ebay revolution :snooker:

I still think it was a great idea to start this thread. Good work.

Great cues surfacing on here. Keep it up .

Spotted this one on eBay today, which might not quite be antique although it must be pretty close I would guess. Its a bit rough, but its the only one I've seen. Has anyone else come across one before?

a machine splice cue with a smashed up badge,
