Offered here is a 1996 Newport Beach in the original oil can finish. Let's have Vog tell you a little about this.

From Vog: Oh. My. Gosh. An original Newport Beach. My memory fails me a bit on this, I think it was made for the tour (that I know for certain) in 1996 and only 96 were made. Or was it 1997 and 97 made? The Newport Beach differs from the Newport in that it has a sound slot in the sole (aka a floating face) and a flat topline instead of the roll top of the Newport of that era. This putter has Scotty's original Oil Can finish which was very finicky. Between being used on tour, and the finish basically eating itself if you used a silicon cloth on it (a NO-NO for the original oil cans) trying to find one in this condition can be a challenge. I know because I have one in my collection-and I was looking for a decade. The original oil can explodes off the metal with gold and purple hues in the finish. One of my "sleeper picks" in this auction as it just does not get enough love. Frankly, unless you love old school Cameron tour putters and/or you were collecting when these were released to the tour, you probably don't know anything about. By the way, this has a baby T stamp on the face, and of the examples I've seen, I guess that less than half have a T stamp on them. These putters were made with guys like Freddie (okay, I have two, one with the initials FC) Ernie Els, Paul Azinger, Seve, etc., guys who liked the old Ping Scottsdale Anser. 

35", Mint 9.8/10 with no signs of being used. Includes an Art of Putting headcover.
