Antique Vintage Hickory Shaft Willie Park Scotland Lofter Player

I just received another group of almost 100 clubs to sell for a friend and will be listing them at auction in the next several days so be sure to check back often and see my other clubs for sale. Included are Tom Stewart irons, Bulldog woods, Gibson irons, Patented clubs, antishank irons and a number of interesting putters. Many with play potential as well as some fine collectibles. Simply click on See Other Items below my eBay name and feedback rating. If you are going to bid on multiple clubs and win one, please wait to pay until you are finished bidding as I will combine the shipping which will  save you some money.  This listing is for a antique vintage 39" hickory shaft iron. I can make out enough of the markings on the back to know it says W Park Musselburgh. Willie Park, Jr was from Musselburgh Scotland. He was an accomplished golfer and club maker. He patented several clubs including a concave face lofter. This club is a lofter that is very similar in shape to Park's Patent Lofter but it is not concave. The head is clean. The head has the expected bag marks and play nicks but none are serious. Please look at the zoom pictures for a better idea of condition. The shaft is an old hickory. The shaft is straight, I see no cracks and it is has some play at the hosel (all hickory shafts should be reset prior to play). The grip is a newer built up sueded russet long leather wrap that is in good vintage condition. This looks like a powerful play club with 47* loft and a heavy E 5 swingweight. Great hard to find collectible as well. Shipping in the US is calculated and based on a 2 pound box. The further you are from me in NC the more shipping will be-that is the way the carriers charge. Shipping  to foreign countries will be much higher and is also calculated. In accordance with the current Ebay policy I am only allowed to state that I accept payment via Paypal. NC residents must add sales tax.
