Tom Stewart is arguably the most famous hickory cleek maker in the world. He only made the club heads, not the entire club. He was a clubhead maker from 1893 to 1932. Some of his clients included Bobby Jones, Old Tom Morris, Harry Vardon and Frances Quimet. Stewart clubs are recognized by his famous cleek mark, the clay pipe he first used in 1893. It was registered as a trademark in 1905.The post 1905 clubs contain this trademark information below the pipe. Some still believe he was the very first clubmaker to make a matched set of clubs.
Offered for auction are the following clubs:
Driver, Hickory shaft, Hand Made on Head, manufacturer appears to be Hanes
1 iron T. Stewart Special
2 iron T. Stewart Special
4 iron T. Stewart Special
5 iron Herd&herd Special
6 iron Spade Mashie T. Stewart Special
7 iron Mashie Niblick T. Stewart Special
9 iron Niblick T. Stewart Special
Niblick Smooth B. E. Snyder Special
Putter Offset T. Stewart Special marked 9 All clubs have the cleek clay pipe insignia. The putter and 1 iron appear to be pre 1905. They do not have the trademark information under the cleek clay pipe. The Putter, Niblick Smooth, and Driver are rare finds, and make the set highly desirable. They trade at a higher price than the irons. I decided to not breakup the set.
I'll try to answer all questions. I am an avid golfer, but a new collector of T. Stewart clubs.
Clubheads have been carefully cleaned with 800 grit sandpaper and water. To my knowledge, the shafts and grips are original. Overall condition of the set is excellent.
