After moving from Scotland to America in 1897 John Duncan Dunn (1872-1951), grandson of Willie Dunn, became assistant professional to his uncle Willie Jr. at the Ardsley CC in New York. Three years later, in 1900, he took over as manager of the Bridgeport Gun Implement Company (BGI Co) golf club division. That is where he produced, most notably, the famous 1-piece driver - a patent he had carried with him since 1894. That same turn-of-the-century year Duncan Dunn was the course architect of Ekwanok CC in Vermont, and later added The Catalina Island GC in California, Belleair Country Club West Course in Belleair, Florida and others to his portfolio. Finally, John Duncan Dunn imparted much of his knowledge of the game as the golf author of titles 'A. B. C. of Golf' (1916), 'Intimate Golf Talks' (1920), and 'Natural Golf' (1931). Through his great-granddaughter Catherine Dunn, we now have the pleasure of offering never before seen items from his family's estate in this auction.
