Early Old Tom Morris 1850 Wooden Niblick

            Old Tom Morris may not have begun making clubs until the mid to late 1850's, and the presented small-headed Wooden Niblick is a fine example of Old Tom's early work. There is a small crack on the crown which does not go all the way through the head. The head is solid and this could be from age or play. Old Tom would go on to make clubs for the next 4 or 5 decades, but early Tom Morris clubs such as this is how it all started.
