Gooseneck blade with 3 1/2" hosel and 2 1/4" ferrule with red ring. Excellent tan sheathed transition shaft without a nick or chip. Very nice 13 1/2" leather wrap pistol grip with extra-wide butt end, taped near butt. Collar with small chip underneath and perfect cap. Also included is an old photo of Harry Obitz and Fred Waring showing Waring's trusty ironmaster with similar grip taped on end - seems like all these models needed tape. Vintage mid 1930's.
