Vintage Golf Book, the Life of Tom Morris
Located in Oxfordshire, GB
The Life Of Tom Morris, With Glimpses Of St Andrews & Its Golfing Celebrities.
One of the most collectable golf books on one of golf's most influential figures 'Old Tom'. An original 1908 first edition copy, one for the true connoisseur. This is a hard bound copy with black letter title "The Life of TOM MORRIS, With Glimpses of St Andrews & Its Golfing Celebrities, W.W. Tulloch, Member of the Royal & Ancient Club of St Andrews'. The original green pictorial cloth cover with a scene showing Old Tom Morris and another golfer playing on the links of St Andrews. Gilt title to spine with illustration of crossed clubs and ball, publisher's icon and illustration of crossed clubs and balls on rear cover. The book with all twenty-seven illustrations (Mr George Glennie, page 96 loose as is page 194, monument to 'Young Tom') including frontispiece with tissue guard, 'Tom Driving Off - Fore'. As far as we can ascertain all 334 pages are there, slight foxing to edges, in a few cases creeping onto the pages. Colston & Co. Limited, printers, Edinburgh.
One of the true classics of golf literature, Reverend Tulloch wrote this to be presented for Tom Morris's 87th birthday.
"To Tom Morris. Dear Old Tom, Will you accept for your eighty-seventh birthday this account of your long and honourable life, and of the many great matches in which you have taken part and been interested? I trust it may recall to you many happy days and many memorable triumphs in the game with which your name and that of your distinguished son will always be associated. It will also, I hope, help to preserve to new generations of golfers the charm of your personality and the memory of the "brave days of old." With all good wishes, Ever yours...

Vintage Hickory Golf Club, Mid Iron.
Located in Oxfordshire, GB
Vintage Hickory Golf Club, Mid Iron.
A fine and nicely weighted dot punched faced mid iron by Josh Taylor (brother of John Henry "J.H." Taylor who was best known for his fine British Open play, winning his first Open in 1894 and went on to win it a further four times). The hickory shaft with polished leather grip, the rear of the club head marked 'Selected, Mid-iron, Warranted Hand Forged, Josh Taylor (signature) Richmond Park' with Taylor's 'Greyhound' cleek mark. The original hickory shaft stamped 'Josh. Taylor Selected'. Taylor was a professional at Aldeburgh and later at a number of other clubs: Seacroft (from 1907), Acton (from 1909), Sudbury (from 1920) and Richmond Park (from 1924).
The measurements shown are the length of the shaft with hosel and the width and depth of the face.
A great golf club iron in good original condition and very usable for modern hickory play. Approximate 24° loft & swing weight C5.
