HEy! i was watching that! hoping it would go down a little bit more...

Glad you got it though... not a lot of space left here!,

The club looks quite old! the picture is too unclear for me to compare the 2 though...

Yes the link picture is not that good but I think you can see the similarity in style. So much of what we study is governed by small details. I could show many clubs following a style of manufacture unmistakable to an area of origin. Yes it would have been nice if the price had come down further but I may have lost it. Sometimes when collecting you have to pay the dealers price or you do not move forward. Which is a pain.

Now I have it in my hands I am happy. Bit on the pricey side but it is a nice old piece. It sports the remnants of two old labels, close up pictures. I would very much like it to be South American however now I think it is most likely from the New Hebridies (which is good) . The decoration is something I have not seen before. Might still be South American wishful thinking?
