"Golf Equipment: A Journey Through Time and Style" Step back in time to the early 1900s, where golf legends like Tom Morris and James Braid dominated the greens. In a captivating artwork by James Patrick, we witness Tom Morris's prowess on display as he swings his club with finesse. Meanwhile, another snapshot takes us even further back to the late 19th century, showcasing Old and Young Tom Morris side by side in their iconic golfing attire. Fast forward to August 23rd, 1905 – a significant date for Tom Morris – as we catch a glimpse of him during one of his remarkable games. The Manchester Golfer magazine cover from May 1911 entices us with an advertisement that promises top-notch golf equipment for enthusiasts seeking perfection in their game. Not only men but women also embraced this elegant sport. Patty Berg's swinging form captivates our attention while reminding us of the growing inclusivity within golfing circles. Even centuries ago, women were making their mark on the green as depicted in Valentine Green's artwork dedicated to the Society of Goffers at Blackheath. Beyond renowned players and artists' interpretations lies evidence of how deeply embedded golf became within society. Charlie Chaplin himself couldn't resist its allure, posing with a club in hand during the roaring twenties when this beloved pastime reached new heights. Traveling further into history reveals William St. Clair of Roslin donning traditional Scottish attire while enjoying a round of golf around 1771 – proof that this sport has stood the test of time across generations. Postcards from c1912 and c1910 feature women confidently taking up clubs themselves; they epitomize gracefulness combined with skill on picturesque courses around the world. Lastly, John Hassall's vibrant poster from the early 1920s invites us to explore "The East Coast, " highlighting its suitability for avid golfers looking for an ideal destination to indulge in their passion.
