Turn of the century club maker Tom Stewart was a leader in the industry, with many collectors looking for clubs bearing his stovepipe makers mark. Tom Stewart was a renowned steel club head maker. Stewart made club heads for the biggest names in golf at the time, like Old Tom Morris, the McEwans, the Auchterlonies, the Forgans, James Braid, Francis Ouimet, and Bobby Jones. Stewart tradmarked his stovepipe mark in 1905, with clubs produced after containing patent information below it.
