Antique Vintage Wood Shaft Spalding Foulis Patent Mashie Niblick D3

Description

This item is an antique vintage right handed 37" wood shaft iron. It is an early smooth face Mashie Niblick as patented by James and David Foulis in 1905. Marked Spalding Gold Medal on the back along with the patent date. The head is very clean as it has been re-plated. Please look at the many zoom pictures for a better idea of condition. The shaft is an old hickory. The shaft is straight, I see no cracks and it is tight at the hosel. All hickory shafted clubs should be re-set prior to play. The grip is an old long leather wrap that is in good vintage condition. 43* loft and a D 3 swingweight for play.
If you are considering playing with this club all wooden shafted irons should be re-set prior to play. While I see no issues with the shaft (other than those mentioned above), I suggest that whipping be added just above the hosel to help prevent breakage. These wooden shafts often have hidden defects and are liable to break at any time. I do not guarantee wooden shafts against breakage when put into play. Never hit an old wooden shafted club off a driving range mat. Never hit an old wooden shafted wood with a hard range ball.
Shipping in the US is calculated and based on a 2 pound box. This item shipped Priority Mail. For those of you that never ship but only receive items, the further you are from me in NC the more shipping will be. That is the way the USPS charges. On top of that, eBay and Paypal take almost 15% of what I receive for shipping (out of I receive .50) and I would like to break even. Shipping to foreign countries (CANADA, GREAT BRITAIN, AUSTRALIA AND SWEDEN) will be higher and is also calculated.  In accordance with the current Ebay policy I am only allowed to state that I accept payment via Paypal.
