Rare 1962 Vintage Arnold Palmer Wilson putter All Original

This is a 1962 Arnold Palmer  Wilson putter.  The precursor to the 8802.  Before Arnold separated from Wilson.  This club was widely copied and changed over the years with other versions.   This is the real McCoy.The face of the putter is slender,  it accommodates a nickel, later versions were larger and were the size of a quarter.  The shaft band is original marked Head Speed.  The grip is a flattened leather and the cap is the original red and blue flags marked Made in USA.   This version was the 1st and only manufactured and marked like this for 1 year.Arnold saw a future for endorsements which served to separate him from Wilson.  The stories are many. but by 1963 he was gone from Wilson and started Arnold Palmer Golf Co.  Wilson then began referring to the putter by it's model number. 8802.I am downsizing and need to sell a lot of my putter collection.  This one has been with me for years.  It has been played and shows some wear.  I never considered it for refurbishment.  It belongs in the original condition that it is currently in.If you have questions or need a different pic please email.  I am not a photographer.  It is a really nice original club.Thanks for your interest.
