This early 20th century putter is clearly made in the style of a long nose, only its slightly smaller as was normal for such clubs produced in the early 20th century.  It's 36 1/2" shaft is stamped "G. Lorimer" and "Restored by Laurie Auchterlonie." There is are a couple of hairline cracks on the top of the head near the lead backweight. 

The leather suede-style grip on this club was installed by Laurie Auchterlonie prior to the club arriving at the World Golf Hall of Fame. It matches up well with even older clubs, and looks very nice here.  

Laurie Auchterlonie, who passed in 1988, was the last of the great St Andrews clubmakers with roots that went back to the gutty era. He was the son of 1893 British Open champ Willie Auchterlonie. He knew how to make hickory shaft clubs and all things related. Plus in 1963 Laurie replaced his father as the honorary professional at the R&A. He certainly knew his craft.  As a further side note, Laurie Auchterlonie helped supply the WGHOF with many of the clubs in their collection. On those clubs that he worked on, usually installing new grips and sometimes cleaning up the finish he would often mark the shaft with "Restored by Laurie Auchterlonie" or etch two small and discreet marks - a straight line and an angled line - in an out-of-the-way place on the club, which was typically on the heel of the sole or back of the neck.
