A Note on Authenticity: All club photos in my listings are real, original photographs of the actual item for sale — no AI involved. The only exception is my “Daily Enchanter” gazette-style graphic, a fun, clearly-labeled creative piece for marketing flair, not a representation of the product itself.

The Construction — Scarce-Neck Splice Joint with Fancy Face Insert:

This example is built with a splice-neck ("scare-neck") joint, where the hickory shaft is spliced directly into the wood head rather than fitted into a drilled socket — an earlier and less common construction method, bound here with black whipping that remains intact. The face carries a fancy insert with visible scoring lines, adding a decorative element beyond the plain persimmon faces typical of the period.

Confirmed Details from Photos:

• Maker's stamp within an oval on the crown, consistent with George Cribben's known stamp style — legible but shows expected age wear

• Splice-neck (scare-neck) shaft-to-head joint, clearly visible

• Original black whipping intact at the neck

• Fancy face insert with scoring lines

• Original hickory shaft

• Warm brown persimmon head with honest, natural patina

Condition: Good for age. Natural patina throughout, not over-cleaned or refinished. Whipping intact. Stamp legible. See photos for full detail.
