Offered here is a 1998 Japanese market Scotty Cameron Newport "Cameron and Company" Stainless with Sterling Silver insert.

Vog Says: While marked 1 of 2500 made, years ago Scotty told me they never produced that many-he estimated maybe 500 were made. Based on the rarity of these-the ones I have seen come on the market on eBay and Yahoo Japan- I would tend to believe that 500 is in the ballpark. Backstory part 2? As an amateur economist and Cameron collector, 1998 was a tough time for Japan. The country was in a deep recession and even though Japan was the market that drove a lot of Scotty's early popularity, Cameron putters just were not selling very well. It's likely the putters weren't selling well early on and production was stopped.

Includes the original leather "bomber" headcover with fleece lining, in 9.0 out of 10 condition. 34"
