Born in North Berwick 1882 to Thomas Dunn, son of Willie Dunn, Seymour Dunn was a member of the great Dunn family of clubmakers. Along with his Willie Jr. and John Duncan Dunn, Seymour moved to America and went on to work in the golf business his entire life. This club is marked with the cleekmark Dunn used between 1915 adn 1925 while working as a professional at Lake Placid, New York.
Both Willie Jr. and John Duncan Dunn devised and patented some unusual clubs. Seymour was also a bit of a club designer and produced the full set offered here. Each club marked with Dunns Crown Viet Arte trademark.
