Here is a rare, George Nicoll “Lee & Underhill, New York”, Leven Fife Scotland, hickory shafted mashie niblic, circa 1900. This head has a small smooth faced head. The markings are clear and visible. Its condition is good and it shows very little ware and marks. The club was lightly cleaned and the head was carefully hand-polished to remove the oxidation and years of neglect. George Nicoll, a blacksmith by trade, began the manufacture of hand forged iron heads or cleeks. Nicoll’s designs were innovative and included in 1895 a swan neck putting cleek which created the same effects a modern centre shaft putter. The designs attracted some very large orders one being placed in 1898 by the Forth Rubber Company for 10,000 clubs. Amongst Nicoll’s many staff players were 3 times winner of The Open Championship Henry Cotton, Brian Huggett, Dai Rees and Vivian Saunders. The company remained in the same family until 1982 and had distribution throughout the golfing World. The famous hand cleek mark first appeared in 1905 and is still used today at St Andrews Golf Co. Ltd. (who now own George Nicoll) during the production of George Nicoll clubs both ancient and modern.The head measures a lengthy 3 inches and the club face in 1.5 inch deep. The club is approximately 38 inches long. The shaft appears to be the original hickory shaft, and the grip appears to be the original s well, not sure, see photos. The head is tight to the hosel with no movement when twisted. This would make a great player or very nice addition to anyone’s collection.
