A.G. Spalding & Bros Patent Hickory Club Straightener/Holder Pat. Mar 6'28 Excellent Condition

This lot features a hickory golf club straightener patented in 1928 by Spalding. Spalding produced many clubs around the turn of the century, the problem with the hickory ones being they had the tendency to bend. Spalding developed this device to slowly straighten them back out. The straightener is made of pine and presents in excellent condition with both straps in tact. This piece would add nicely to any hickory club collection. It measures 14" x 3 1/2." This relic of competition at golfs highest level comes directly from the PGA where it has resided for over 75 years. From the collection of PGA REACH, with a certificate of authenticity accompanying this lot.
