Offered here is a circa 1898-1900 Bridgeport One-Piece Driver with leather face insert. According to The Clubmaker's Art, in 1897 the Bridgeport Gun Implement Company hired John Dunn and offered one-piece woods produced under Dunn's "personal supervision." However, once golfers realized that the one-piece did not drive that ball any farther, and that once broken it could not be repaired, the one-piece wood began to fall out of fashion. 

The offered club has a crown stamp from George McHardy, which was a sporting good store in Buenos Aires, Argentina in the late 1800s and very early 1900s.
