Value Vintage Dufferin Snooker Cue Brass Joint, Ebony Butt
What is the value of a vintage Dufferin snooker cue with a brass joint and an ebony butt?
Decades ago I started playing Snooker. It was the first billiard game I learned. Eventually, I purchased a Dufferin Snooker cue. I bought it for the billiard parlor I played almost daily at. The cue was used even then but I liked the feel of it so much I scrounged up the $50 the guy was asking for and I've owned it ever since. I am very meticulous when it comes to maintaining my tools and in essence that cue is a tool.
- Length = 57"
- Weight = 18 oz (stamped on butt just that way)
- Butt Material = Ebony (I think)
- Shaft & upper section of butt material = Ash, I think but the grain looks more like Oak
- Joint - Brass w pilot
- Ferrule = Brass
- Value 2019 = ?
It's still as true as the day I bought it! The only negative thing I can say about her is that, over time, the dark and more pithy part of the grain has shrunk so that there is a bit of a rough feel to the shaft.
I will try and up load some pics as soon as I take them.

Welcome to the Billiards Forum.
We're going to need photos to be sure we can identify your Dufferin Snooker cue correctly.
This must be done before anyone can give you a valuation.

Here are the pictures of the black Dufferin snooker cue. Sorry about poor quality.

Yeah those are tough to look at.
What does the round metal plate on butt say? Just "Dufferin"?

Just "Dufferin"
The insert is brass with the "Dufferin" logo.
