That would be so cool to have an original Balabushka. This is just a replica, made by the Adam cue company. These were high quality cues though, but just Production cues. I think this cue may have retailed for around $800-$900, when it was new.

if u are lucky to find one there are so many balabushka old cues for sale out there. my father bought one for 300 euros 2 years ago, and one friends of him bought one for 150, not veyr good condition but still worth 400 500 but he doesnt want to sell it. good luck

$135 in the mid 60's and that included a second shaft.

This is a replica / tribute cue (made by Adam / Helmstetter, on Japan), not an original. And yeah, Balabushka did not sign his cues.

are you perhaps talking about meucci cues

I sold it around the same time that I created this video, but you can find these from time to time on ebay. Just keep an eye out on ebay. They are great cues.

Pooldawg has them, tribute cues just like this one. I just bought one for $668. Just for the signature. But it’s a nice playing cue as well.
