Walter Lindrum's world record breaking cue 1932

[tree man]

Hi there,

Can anyone help me?

This was my fathers cue, he had it from new.

I found a book online that states its known as a "32 Lindrum" and that it was handmade by Peradon & co. It also has a "Morcues phone london" trademark crest on it; see below pictures.

Can anyone tell me any more about it?

Is it a rare cue?

Is it worth anything?

Love to find out more.

Thanks in advance

It was not made by peradon, It was made by Morcues, they can fetch decent money, a lot of it is about spec and condition.

a lot of it is about spec and condition.

Thanks for the reply.

Looks like it's in good condition. It's 57 and half inches to the end of the brass ferrul where the tip joins. It's stamped 16Oz, if that means anything.

Would you be able to elaborate on what you mean by specification?

Upwards of £300, so a nice cue. They usually all end up in Australia with lindrum collectors hence the inflated price vs something like 'the professional champion' essentially the same cue, different badge which might make £120.
