He did recently restore a very nice old pool table (unreal woodwork) and has it in his home where most folks put a dining room table but not sure if he bothered to learn cues.

If he wanted nice playing cues to go along with that table...AE for himself. Schon, Jacoby, Peaschaur (sp?) All very excellent factory cues. AE retail prices begin at around a grand, the others around $500. (edit) Many good shooters these days carry 3 basic cues...break cue, playing cue, and jump cue.
But, I'm not into buying stuff to collect...buy things to use. Right now, I'm quite happy with the hit & feel of my Keith Josey cue. Kind of like the Porsche I bought to drive... the more collectable it became, the less I enjoyed it.
I know this doesn't make sense to everyone, but it works for me.
