Identify Cue with a "B" Logo and "Willie Hoppe Commemorative"
This last cue is unknown to me.
The cue logo is a letter "B" in a gold rectangle, all in a black circle.
The "B" shape has a dot or marker inside the top bubble of the B.
There is some lettering on the the shaft but much of it is faded and difficult to make out. It looks like it may have read something along the lines of: "Willie [M/H]op[p] [Commemorative/Commercial]"
If anyone could give me direction as to the manufacturer and model of the cue, as well as what they may be worth, I would really appreciate it.

It is Willie Hoppe branded, but being made by Dufferin, it is not of any particular interest or value.
