Vintage Healthway Pro 'Golf Ball Marker'- Endorsed by the Stars - Complete Set
This is a prime example of how times in golf history have indeed changed. Losing golf balls was a problem, and so was a caddy "misappropriating" someone's golf ball. Golfer's marked their golf balls not to decipher which belonged to who throughout a day on the course, but rather that if they lost them they would be returned. This Vintage Healthway "Pro" Golf Ball Marker was an excellent tool to have and an easy tool to use in order to properly mark your ball. The desired letters were inserted under a metal contraption with a slot to reveal the letter faces. That metal contraption was then tightened by a twist knob underneath the base. The ball would be loaded into a holding cavity to keep it stable. Once the ball was loaded, the letters would be pressed around the curvature of the ball in order to produce the desired marking.
Preloaded letters spell out "CHRIS COLLIER"
