Dunno what was said first time but the description has been revised which presumably explains why you asked.

Yes, at first he did not mention that it was custom from a B&W.
I am also wondering about the RO badge, the fonts look different from the ones I have seen.
Does anyone know whether this badge is really from RO? If so, did he use it during a certain time period, or does he only use it on conversion cues or something like that?
Thank you.

This cue is not an original made by Robert, however it has been modified by him hence why it says customized.
Robert uses this plate when he does these types of jobs, as it was not one made by him but altered/customized by him. I have friends who have the same badge and i know Roberts work very well and the badge is authentic.

Thank you very much for taking the time to give such a detailed explanation. This is exactly what I was looking for. Much appreciated.
