Rare Set of Matching-Number
Spalding Hickory Shafted Bobby Jones Irons

In the early 1930s, Spalding signed Bobby Jones for the rights to produce clubs bearing his name. Spalding's 1932 Spring and Summer catalog included "Robt. T. Jones" signature clubs for the first time. Bobby Jones himself, however, only played hickory shafted clubs. Yet according the The Clubmaker's Art (Second Edition) by Jeff Ellis, "there are only a handful of complete 'Spalding, Robt. T Jones Jr.' wood-shafted iron sets known." Ellis goes on to state that "[t]oday, the few remaining sets stand as prime collectibles." 

The set offered here is a complete matched set of irons (Reg. No. H35883) - 1 iron through 9 iron. Bobby Jones himself used hickory shafted irons during his playing career, and these clubs represent one of the only chances to own a set of Spalding hickory shafted Bobby Jones model irons.
