- antique wood shaft long nose golf putter -
Y-model
-
- Offered here is an interesting wood shaft aluminum
head long nose putter made by the Mills company in
Sunderland England c1910 - very unusual tinthat it also
includes the markings of the BGI Co. These putters were
made by the Mills company to mimic the style of the
famous makers from the 1800's in this case a Hugh Philp
feather ball era long nose putter from the 1860's. This
putter has very good markings as shown in the photos "The
Mills Y Model Upright Lie 9 oz. 9 dr. The top of the club
has the patent information and made by the "Standard Golf
Co. Mills patent Sunderland". The hosel is in good
condition with no cracks -- often there are cracks in the
hosel of aluminum putters so this one is a nice find.
There are the usual "dings" associated with aluminum head
clubs and the grip appears to be an older leather grip in
good condition. The shaft is in good condition - This
wood shaft putter certainly is different from most wood
shaft putters - it shows it's age and with it's
interesting shape and history would display nicely in
your collection.
