...Wonderful
vintage set of BURR-KEY-BILT
...
Great golf clubs : # 1 - # 8 irons and putter (# 10)
Model:
LADY CLASSIC
These are pre-owned and vintage.
Great set is ready to display.
Overall condition of this set is very good as its age except some flaws below:
>>
The clubs show
all kinds of general wears
including the hairline cracks (not chips) from age and play
on the green/brown marble designed hosels.
Most of them (hosels) have some cracks (either short or long, or both). However, they are not noticeable due to the marbled pattern. And they are not falling out or flaking but
steady
and smooth in current condition. If you use and hit the ball or grass/ground strongly, I don't know what happens. I list the set as Displaying or Collectible.
NOTE 1
: (I think) the old plastic is celluloid. It could be bakelite or any other material.
NOTE 2
: The golf balls/box is not included for this sale.
>>
A couple of shafts are not matched as for the steps (stiffness as well). And all shafts are aged and have a bit bumpy surface, but I think they are not so bad.
The # 5 shaft is a bit bent.
>>
The grips are leather and in good shape. The # 6 (spade mashie) doesn't have the original end cap so that it is possible the grip has been replaced. The wrapped leather grip looks close enough as matched to the others. The original end caps are numbered with a little leaf stamps.
From a reference book:
R. H. Buhrke
was a tool company that entered the golf club business in the mid 1920's. //////// One interesting model was the **
CLASSIC LINE
** of Irons in which
a circular brass plug
was inserted in the club face at the
sweet spot.
Measurement (inch): # 1 club length is about 37 1/4
, # 10 (putter) is about 32 3/4
**All clubs I sell are for displaying or collectible purpose only. I don't know the specs and playability.
