Thanks for your patience :) You're looking at a early Bussey Patent brass blade putter circa 1902-1905. This putter with the steel socket and brass head is good condition with the light playwear/bagmarks on the soft brass head. Like most early putter the putting blade is centered on the hosel making is usable for left or right putting.  The brass blade is good but the steel hosel  is pitted. The Stampings are good,clear and mostly complete little . Original shaft is basically straight.  No crack on the shaft but does have grain lines and fits tight to the head. The length is 33 1 /2 inches long.  The original one piece stamped Bussey leather grip is fair has some minor missing part at the top near the butt and a small hole near the stamp ( see pic ). A scarce  putter be it for playing or displaying in this original fine condition. Swing weight is B4 and the total weight is 1lb.
