John D. Dunn BGI Co. Wood One Piece Driver with Shaft Stamp!
A John D. Dunn BGI one-piece driver with hickory head and shaft made from the one piece of wood, and it is in excellent condition. This club dates from late 1890's to 1903. The shaft and head of the club are made from one piece of wood. This club is 44" to the heel. This club is in great condition for being 115+ years old. BGI was one of the first three golf club makers in America starting about 1898 & ending mysteriously in less than 10 years. They were a creative company and made quality golf clubs. BGI was the first company to use a numbering system to identify their different model clubs by adding a number on the shaft of the club. 'BGI Co. Trade Mark' is stamped on the head. Progressive and ahead of their time, this high quality workmanship is prevalent in this club. Their elegant design is apparent in their scareneck woods.
