ANTIQUE VINTAGE OLD BRITISH DRIVER HICKORY WOOD WOODEN SHAFT GOLF CLUB
Item History & Price
Antique old wooden shafted Fred Stephens driver. Very solid club with a C5 swingweight. This is a through socket design with the shaft coming all the way through the head to the sole. Very pretty club with much of its original finish remaining. F. Stephens is documented in Pete Georgiady's great reference work 'The Compendium of British Club Makers.' He is documented working from the teens through the early 1930's. Face remains with its original fine... line scoring intact. Head stamps still readable, " Fred Stephens, Special." Leading edge with just a few scant play nicks. Slip plate is black gutta percha. Not very much wear to this sole. No cracks in head, neck, or shaft. Shaft is stiff. Lead backweight with good patina. Shaft with a slight St. Andrews bend and is almost certainly the original. Total club length at 43 5/8 inches. Intact period leather wrap grip over underlisting.
