Found this Queen #20 Texas toothpick in a pawn shop, and it has the 1932-1955 'Q only' tang stamp, but I am unsure of the handle material and approximate value. it looks to be bonestag or 2nd cut stag to me, I don't have many Queen's and the books I have basically is all about winterbottom and Rodgers bone. any help would be appreciated.

Welcome to AAPK canoeman!
You have a great looking Queen there. I can't answer your questions about it but someone should be along that can.

Yes, very nice knife! It looks more nicely finished to me than the pre-war Queen City knives and I think the company was doing more experimentation with bone handles after the war. If the blade etch is sandblasted, I would bet post WWII. No etch, I'd start leaning older

Thanks, for the info or insight, but it has NO Etch, just the 'crowned Q' tang stamp.
