A.G. Spalding & Bros D1000 Driver Pat'n April 2, 1923
Here is a 1923 dated driver with featuring a contrasting light stripe across the center of the dark stained head. No matter what brand of club you pull from your bag, you owe some thanks to one company--Spalding. At the turn of the 20th Century, golf had stirred mild interest in the United States, and A.G. Spalding & Brothers sporting goods saw an opportunity. The company was already selling golf balls when, in 1905, it became the first in America to offer its own brand of golf clubs.
