It looks to be an Adam-Helmstetter AH-37 cue, aka, Adam "Galaxie" cue made between 1970 and 1975 (cue on the left, below). It is an 8-point pool cue I believe.
Level 7 A/H-37 "Galaxie"
Stained maple forearm with ebony-bordered mother-of-pearl dots above wrap, three long rosewood points with three colored veneers and mother-of-pearl dots and notched, diamond-shaped inlays with a maple splice at top alternating with three maple points with three colored veneers, rosewood butt sleeve with four mother-of-pearl notched diamond-shaped inlays each set in colored veneer-bordered rosewood windows between rows of mother-of-pearl dots and metal rings.
It was a popular model. It was later remade as a "Adam Classic" (a re-release of popular older models). These newer versions have the model, name, and original production years on the forearm (see the cue on the right below.
