This is a pipe rack which is being used as a golf ball display.
The balls are all over 50 years old, and are all the original 1.62 inches UK size. They range from the 1950s/60s,and 70s.
Balls of this size were used up to the 1973 in the Open Championship, and in 1974 the standard was set at 1.68 inches(which is the size of the golf ball we use today).
These are all in good to very good condition with no hacks, and make an excellent display.
They are:
Slazenger T B51
Penfold Ace
Royal ( latterly Uniroyal)
Dunlop 65
McGregor Tourney MT
Penfold Player
Pagan
Spalding Top-flite XL
Apollo
Spalding USA Pro-flite
Penfold Pro
Craigton Player
Hi-Fli Japan
Dunlop Max Silver Max
Titleist Acushnet USA
Dunlop Warwick

These are getting rarer to find so grab yourself some of the antiques of the future.
