Broomhandle help needed

[Dave Sanders]

I have a chance to buy this broomhandle and have always wanted one, but really know next to nothing about them. The man selling this has kind of an idea what he wants, but before we discuss price, I wanted to see what "type" this one is and what your idea of value range it would be. He isn't in a hurry to sell or doesn't need the money, but will sell if we come to an agreement. So, any help would be much appreciated He took the pictures which came out pretty well I believe. I looked it over today and it looks in really nice condition. It was handed down from his grandfather who purchased it overseas he believes and many yeas ago, probably in the 20's or there abouts.
