| This very unusual double lever
weighs in at a hefty 1 1/4 pounds. Turn the ball to thread the worm into the
cork and raise the clubs. Once the worm is inserted, lower the clubs to extract
the cork. It is well made, silver plated and unmarked. |
 |
| The complete "19th Hole Caddy" sets
includes golf bag with measuring cup, bottle opener, corkscrew, eight golf
clubs and a 'Pour Card" which contains 18 drink recipes. The drink recipes have
such names as Sod Car, Greens Lady, Divot Sling, Partini and Swinger. The cap
lifter folds over a plastic recess which houses the worm. The clubs are used as
swizzle sticks. The bag is often seen in red and seldom seen in green. Some are
marked EPP, 225 5TH AVE. N.Y. CITY PAT APP FOR. |
 |
| This 7 1/2" high trophy would be the
pride of any golfer. The golfer lifts off the base to expose the opener which
unthreads for the corkscrew. The base has not been engraved. An Italian
collector has one engraved with "Trenton Country Club 1928, F. Richard
Cass." |
