Before pin flags became commonplace, golf holes were often marked with small tin hole markers. Offered here is a rare complete set of 1880-1900s tin heart shaped golf hole markers. Each marker is 29.5" long and the heart itself is about 7" x 7". The heart is made of tin, and the pin itself is iron. 100% original and in very good condition. This is the first complete set we've seen, though we've sold individual examples for over $250.
