Leather Bag: Fancy Face Matching Wood Set Banned: Deep Groove
Hickory Clubs: 5 Irons 1 Putter MacGregor: 1920's


This item is a 9 club set of  ca. 1920's MacGregor hickory shafted clubs and fancy face woods in an old all leather bag for display. These are 5 irons and 1 putter all with hickory shafts and all made by MacGregor of Dayton, OH. There is a 3 clubs set, driver brassie spoon, of matching MacGregor Go-Sum Yardsmore Inlay fancy face woods. All the woods have yellow pyratone covered faux wood shafts. This is the way sets were sold in the late 1920's into the 30's. Irons with hickory shafts and woods with pyratone faux wood shafts. Most manufacturers stopped offering hickory shafted woods around this time. All of the clubs are in good display condition but might have some issues. Shafts are pretty good and straight and crack free. Pyratone coating is in good condition. The woods look like the heads were refinished many years ago. The iron heads are all clean and rust free. Included are a Mid Iron, Mashie, Mashie Niblick, Niblick and Putter. Also included is a banned deep groove mashie that the grooves have been filled in with brass to make it legal again. Grips are in good vintage condition and have been whipped at the bottom. The hickory shafts are in good clean condition. The bag is a top quality in its day all leather collapsible. No makers name but was no doubt expensive. It has several interesting features. There is an attached leather travel cover that zips up when the clubs are being transported. The travel cover folds down on the outside of the bag during play or can also be tucked inside the bag during play. Two large zippered pockets and one full length zipper that allows access to the entire interior of the bag. All the zippers work. The leather is in good supple condition. It does show some rubbing and dirt spots. Treat it with a leather cleaner/restorer and should really look sharp once again. I see a couple of very tiny holes in the leather. The stitching is also in good condition. The stitching in these old bags often came apart. The handle is intact but only part of the shoulder strap remains. You have to be very careful with any of these 90 +/- year old bags as the handles and straps tend to break or the stitching tends to come loose if you load them with clubs and carry them around. Not recommended for modern day play. There are also 3 interesting old locks on the zipper pull tabs. They have an ornate Indian Chieftain on one side and a large S on the other. Please look at the zoom pictures for a better idea of condition. Not for play! Display only.
