Looks a lot like an Adam A/H-42 "Gemini" cue circa 1973 through to the early 1980s.
From an early Adam Japan catalog:
Bocote forearm with a rosewood ring within black and white plastic rings at bottom, bocote handle with a rosewood ring within black and white plastic rings at bottom, bocote butt sleeve with a rosewood ring within black and white plastic rings at bottom.

Do you happen to know anything about the value of this cue?

I don't have any sales data on hand for this particular model, and an eBay search didn't turn up anything.
I see that similar Adam cues sell for between $100 and $200 depending.
It's in the (somewhat outdated) Blue Book of Pool Cues 3rd edition (2005). It is listed as a "level 2" pool cue, which indicates it is a basic/simple cue. The price range is listed at between $130 and $275.

I just acquired an Adam cue just like this one. It is in an old "majestic" cue case. The wood on the cue is in excellent condition. The metal joint is corroded, and tip and shaft is rough. It came with an old cue tip shaper and sander in cue case.
Is this an Adam A/H 42 cue?
