    Description

    This item is a 39 3/4" right handed
    Iron. It is a 29* loft and an E 4 swingweight early smooth face Iron or General Iron. The is a small oval on the back and I can make out T H and Edinburgh in the oval. Not sure who the maker or pro was but this is an old iron. Long thick hosel that is not perfectly round. Substantially sized blade that is pounded thin on the sole. Hosel crease is not round but not perfectly flat either. Circa 1890 +/- would be my guess. Definitely made in the old style. Apparently
    original
    shaft that has a W carved in it. I don't believe the shaft is made of hickory. Leather grip is a newer
    replacement
    . There is a small oval shaft stamp. I believe it says Carruthers but can't be sure. This would make sense as to the maker as Thomas Carruthers had a shop in Edinburgh around the time this irons dates to.
    Please look at the many zoom pictures to get a better idea of condition. A nice visual early hand forged blacksmith iron for display.
    If you are considering playing with this club, while I see no issues with this hickory shaft (other than those mentioned above), I suggest that whipping be added just above the hosel to help prevent breakage (already done on this club). These hickory shafts often have hidden defects and are liable to break at any time. I do not guarantee hickory shafts against breakage when put into play. Never hit an old hickory shafted club off a driving range mat. Never hit an old hickory shafted wood with a hard range ball.
    Shipping in the US is calculated for this item and based on a 2 pound box. The closer you are to me in NC (27712 zip) the less shipping will be. That is the way shipping works as it costs me more to ship a greater distance with all the carriers. I do ship pretty much worldwide but shipping is a lot more to foreign locations and is also calculated.
