Antique Vintage Hickory Shaft Willie Park Scotland Patented Driving Cleek 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 40 1/2" hickory shaft iron. Marked W Park's Patent Driving Cleek (somewhat faintly) on the back. Willie Park, Jr was from Musselburgh Scotland. He was an accomplished golfer and club maker. He patented this driving cleek, along with several other clubs, in the 1890's.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. I believe I see a shaft stamp but it is very hard to make out. The shaft is straight, I see no cracks and it is tight at the hosel (all hickory shafts should be reset prior to play). The grip is an old built up sueded russet long leather wrap that is in good vintage condition and could be original. This is a very low lofted (off my loft lie machine) rounded back smooth face iron. The swingweight is a D 6 if you are considering play. Great hard to find collectible. 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.
