Description

This is a semi long nose splice neck lofted play club with a full brass plate by Wm Park.  The Park family from Musselburgh won seven Open Championships over three decades.  The beautiful Beech head has been left in its natural blonde color.  The WM PARK mark is very clear on the crown.  The shaft and whipping are original.  Part of the splice whipping is missing.  The Wm PARK shaft name stamp is bold.  The grip is a period type leather wrap.  This club dates to the mid 1890s.  It is 40 1/2" long from the tip of the shaft to the heel of the brass plate.  The head is 3 3/4" long and 2" wide at the widest point of the crown.  The face depth is only 1 1/4".  The leading edge of the horn and the metal plate are in very good condition except for a dent on the leading edge.  The face shows little signs of use.       This is a beautiful piece of early golf.  Buy with confidence.
