Antique/Vintage hickory golf club by Tom Stewart, St. Andrews. A fine anti shank Special Niblick by Tom Stewart of St. Andrews. Hickory shafted with smooth face and sheepskin grip. The club is a good example but the head is heavily pitted. On the rear of the club head is the “pipe” cleek mark of Tom Stewart with the phrase ‘T.S.St.A.REG.TRADEMARK’. The 'pipe' mark on it’s own was in use from 1893 to 1905, it was from 1905 and onwards that the phrase was added. Tom learnt some of his club making art from his father who was a carpenter and occasional club maker. He served his apprenticeship with one of St. Andrews most prolific iron club makers, Robert White.
