JP ' London ' Cue

[Neil Taperell]

A mate of mine has just found the butt of a JP cue with ' London ' on the badge .

We're these made before the ' Postcode ' cue ?

He is toying with the idea of getting JP to make a new shaft for it .

Any idea what the price would be if it had the original shaft ?

I seem to recall that the postcode ones go for quite a bit but can't remember what sort of money these go for .

Cheers

there are TWO Postcode cues
"London SE 23" in the middle (some had numbers, some not) and the "SE 23 Ultimate Cue"
it sounds like he has a postcode cue, come on Neil, pictures as soon as possible... :biggrin:

question, what is wrong with the shaft it has already?

I think he only has the BUTT of the cue. .

Maybe another two piece?

[Neil Taperell]

Will try and get pics . But i am sure he said that there were no numbers on the badge .

[DeanH]

[Neil Taperell]

Double checked and he said that there is no numbers on the badge . Hopefully will get picture later when he gets in from work .

JP ' London ' Cue

never seen this type before, interested in anyone else's comments.
if legit then my guess would be it is before the Postcode badges
so mid 80s, ?

new one on me - phone call to john required maybe?

[Neil Taperell]

It dates back to the West Norwood Snooker Club .....which has been shut for a good few years .

JP ' London ' Cue

My initial impression upon seeing the photos is it looks pretty similar to the personalised badges that John offers. The 'London' font seems much like his newer badges. The N and O are wider than the industrial style font used around the 'postcode' time.

Perhaps a whole new species of JP :snooker:
