Very nice, the writing on the top is M with Tourney written through it.
They date from about 1961 and do have the aluminum insert in the centre, commonly called the firing pin.
They look like they've been restored at some point, the original finish has been stripped off to show the grain and then varnished over.
Can you see what shafts are in them? Should be a Pro-Pel and usually a number 2 for reg or 1 for stiff flex.
A definite profit in there if you post on ebay, hard to say how much but I'd guess £50 or £60.

Back in the vintage game. Finally got round to regripping my dads old clubs.
Looking forward to giving them a bash this season.
Picked up some old school furry headcovers. Been a while since I used them.

Nice one!
Spectrum is an odd one, short lived company, who had an address in Leicester even though their clubs say Scotland.
Not seen the Advantage before so will be adding to my database, thanks.
Can you post a clearer picture of the back of the 5 iron, with the sole writing included too please?

Thanks didn't know anything about the company. Had a look one day and found nothing.
Here's the 5iron

I am now playing my MacGregor Jack Nicklaus Muirfield irons.
Can you tell me please Crow what the lofts in degrees of them are.
3- PW?
Or where I can find that information.
Thanks in anticipation

Thanks Gary, perfect.

Afraid I've not been able to find a definitive set of figures but two options are shown below.
3 to PW
23, 26, 29, 33, 37, 41, 45, 50
23, 26, 30, 34, 38, 42, 46, 50
They're pretty closely matched so I think you'll be within a degree whichever one you choose.
How are you getting on with the irons?

Thanks Crow. I'm getting on much better than I thought I would. I am enjoying them. I find I concentrate more over the shot( so small) ?
There's no doubt that when you hit them right it's the sweetest sensation, hardly any feel, if that makes sense.
OTOH, when you don't hit right, you know it.

That in bold is what I found, they definitely improve the quality and consistency of your shots because you can't get lazy and rely on the tech!

It was warm enough today for me to venture into the garage and do a bit of re-gripping.
Ben Sayers "Mentor" circa 1976 with some of the most petrified grips I've ever seen, Victory Green, what else could they be?
Swapped them for a rather dashing red set, how long will it be until I can put them into play?

You've jumped in feet first there!
Fantastic set of clubs and those MS-1s are proper blades.
Where did you find them?
I won't ask the price!

On a well known internet auction site
Up at £75, put them on my watch list, got an offer from the seller for £65 & took it. The MS-2 2 iron I got for an offer of £20, the set of woods was £50 and the missing putter was a fiver (£10 with the postage). So £145 all up. Oh, and a little bonus with the MS-1's; they've already been lengthened and match my MP-25's. Not mentioned in the description, maybe the seller didn't know.
