Offered here is one of the finest set of early 1900s "Salesman Sample" golf clubs that we've ever encountered. This is an exceptional collection of "The Spalding" salesman sample wood, irons, and putter.
These clubs range from only 14 1/4" to 16" long, and are every bit as handmade as the full-size "The Spalding" clubs of the day. These small Salesman Sample clubs would allow a salesman to easily transport the company's latest club offerings to golf shops and sporting goods stores without having to lug around dozens of full-size golf clubs.
This set consists of three original The Spalding irons, one driver, and a putter. The clubs are all stamped "the Spalding."
These clubs are in exceptional condition. Surely among the finest examples in existence.
Here is a complete list of clubs and sizes:
Driver 15 3/4"
Mid Iron 16"
Mashie 15 1/2"
Niblick 15 1/2"
Putter 14 1/4"
