Lew you are very right. That's what I am saying. Add to it the quality of the pictures and dating becomes even more difficult. I just don't see how you can date this from the pictures.

Ian was basing his opinion on the the over all quality of the facet work on the head he said that more recent versions lack the quality work found on this club.
Mr. Knight may be right saying this is an 1879 pattern. But Mr. Knight is standing out in left field with me giving it any date. He can't date that club any more than I can. I have seen similar clubs dated from the 1950's in as good a quality. That doesn't make this club a club from the 1950's either.


Now this isn't meant to be negative directed at the club. We would not hesitate to add this club to our collection.
