Offered are two circa 1900-1910 era, SMOOTH FACE, hickory shaft golf clubs both with professionally replaced leather grips. The clubs sport an original patina and finish adding to their appeal. Both clubs have the normal wear, dings commensurate with age and use.
Club number one is a smooth face putter. It is a ladies' example with an (L) and "J.H. NORTON MAKER - HOLLYWOOD, NJ, boldly stamped on the back. The club measures 30.5 inches from the heel to the top of the nearly straight shaft. A well made club by a maker who most likely was associated with the prestigious HOLLYWOOD GOLF CLUB near the New Jersey shore.
The second club is a very nice smooth face, unmarked, mashie that has the following stamped on the back: "VICTOR O.W. CO." There is a small wood chip missing on the straight shaft by the hosel as seen in the photo. The club measures 37 inches from the heel to the end of the straight shaft.
A nice looking duo of well-made, seldomly found clubs from these makers.
