Description

Victorian hickory golf club Sunday walking stick or cane.
Know as such as you weren't allowed to play games on a Sunday in those times
so the canes were made to disguise the purpose they were used for and as a sign of protest.
Brass head Stamped R Forgan & Son St Andrews with the Prince of Wales feathers above. The head is attached to a hickory shaft with a cast brass ferrule.
Comes with a certificate of authenticity by Sean Arnold, an authority on sporting goods. I've tried to access their site but it's no longer live so I presume they are no longer open. It was purchased by the previous owner in 2004 I believe.
Lovely quality and well made but has been well used as you can see.
It measures 86.4 cm 34 inches in length, the club handle is 10 cm 4 inches wide.
It's in excellent condition but with some signs of age and use as you'd expect at this age.
No damage or repairs to any part of the cane.
