'New Club' Sunday/Walking Stick With Stripe on Crown
Some refer to the club as a walking stick, others a Sunday club (Sabbath day), either the 35" non-play club is a vintage golf antiquity none the less. Workmanship dictates that this club originated from approximately 1910 and likely hails from St Andrews New G.C. An elegant contrasting light stripe shoots across the crown of this clubhead, carrying the strong stamping "NEW CLUB." There is a face insert added with wood pegs. For the individual interested in telling the story of the Sunday club/walking stick, this piece will be a fine tangible prop.
Golf Club Historian and Author, Pete Georgiady, has reviewed this lot and approves of this description. Pete, along with Dick McDonough, co-authored "Great Golf Collections of the World" and while doing so personally examined and photographed many of the fine clubs owned by Will Roberto being offered here.
If you would like any additional pictures of the club we would be happy to to supply them, please inquire prior to March 3rd for sufficient time to guarantee a thorough response.
