Otto Hackbarth was a club maker primarily in Cincinnati Ohio.  The "Coathanger" shaped two-tined hosel with a brass weight strip in sole is one of the iconic putter of all time. The weighted bottom puts pressure on the tines often breaking or cracking them but not this putter head - the tines have never been damaged or repaired.  The hosel does show the crimping from a reshafting (see photo) but the head is otherwise in fine condition.The head is firmly attached to the shaft which has is a period replacement.  The black leather grip is in excellent shape.  

Peter Georgiady's Wood Shafted Golf Club Value Guide lists the value of this club between $300 and $500.Please look at all photos carefully and ask any questions before bidding.  Good Luck - this is a very special club!
