In the big book by Eugene Bender on page 299, there are shown some LP-08 cleaning rods credited to the collection of Don Rousseau.
Several are written up as having brass tips and brass swivels...
BTW...here is one I own...thought it is/was a real, legit one with brass on the tip and swivel assembly.
Mine has the Imperial C/letter stamped in the wood on one end of the "beer barrel" as well.
Tom/ George...is mine a fake ???
