This lot consists of the ninth club from the right in the group image. This early 20th century iron bears the cleekmark of George Nicoll and has its original sueded leather grip and 18 ¾” shaft. Outstanding condition.

In the accompanying close up images, one can see how accurate and to scale the clubhead is.  It looks like a full size iron and is made to the same standards using the same materials.

The club on the far left in the group picture is a full size play club made by Tom Morris, also offered in this auction. It is shown for perspective. 

All of the miniature clubs, juvenile clubs, and walking sticks offered in this auction were collected by a single individual. This collector spent many years acquiring as many of these clubs and sticks as possible, ultimately building an impressive collection the likes of which most collectors have never seen.  Terrific collection that can be displayed in a very small space and will look great even in a professional office setting.
