Offered here is a circa 1920s-early 1930s Saville rustless iron with a projecting face. Highly unusual projecting face with a square hosel and shaft. According to Jeff Ellis, "less than ten examples are known." Excellent condition. 

This club originates from the famed Jeff Ellis Collection, and this exact club was featured in his books The Clubmaker's Art (TCA 1, p. 436; TCA 2, p. 551). This club has not reached the collector market since its sale at the 2007 Sotheby's auction of the Jeff Ellis Collection.
