Year: c.1920s

Shaft: Original, straight shaft, with new suede grip.

Length: Brassie 42 1/2"

Condition: Lightly restored, but very good for age. No visible signs of cracks or splits.

Unusual larger size socket-headed wood - 3" width across the crown. The rear of the wide head (where the lead weight is added) is very under-cut to the brass sole plate, giving a 'flying-saucer' like aerodynamic shape.

A nice playable brassie. More photos available on request.
