Hi and thanks for the input on the clubs.
Here are some pieces of relevant research I have gathered :-
Image of two similar old aboriginal clubs in the Ulster Museum. The top one was collected by Von Stieglitz in the 1830s.
A picture of a Sudanese man (1920s ?) with a similar throwing stick/club. Although the curved end is not so flared as my example.
Picture of a baobab fruit.
More comments are welcome...
