this is the only thing i could find on the net Hinde, a retired cue maker, was visited by Murphy two weeks before the Embassy tournament in Sheffield and fitted a new tip on his cue. The cue itself also came from Hinde.

"It's about 80 years old," he says. "It's a Tom Newman cue. He was a famous billiards champion. I've got a collection of cues and I chose this one to give to Shaun when he was about 14. It was too small, so I had to lengthen it, build extensions and also work on the weight and balance.

sorry i must have missed this post - yes i have seen a few cues by rodney hind - and he did lengthen murphys cue it was a 1370. he is retired now so they are not that common will do well on ebay with the right advert.
