Model Champion cue

The Model Champion cue.

I had two but let one go to a fellow collector.

The cue is hand spliced with the thumb print style badge.

One example has a snake wood and ebony butt and the other is ebony only.

They were made by wholesale cue maker, J H Bailey of 812 Garratt Lane, Tooting, during the inter-war period (1920s – 1930s).
