Spotted last night, made an offer, collected locally today.
Dunlop Peter Thomson Mark 6 circa 1973.
Driver, 3-wood, 3-SW and matching putter. Cleaned up nicely and ferule gaps easily sorted.
Picture is after cleaning and before ferules sorted.
I already had the woods 3,4,5, but the new 3-wood is better condition.
Whole 14 clubs 1,3,4,5 and 3-SW and putter - lovely matched set. (and a spare 3-wood)
Putter grip is fine, but 11 new grips required.

Major error above.
The putter is Dunlop Peter Thomson Mark 6 as it is clearly stamped on the back. The Mark 6 was 1970.
The irons are the 1973 model that came after the 1970 Mark 6 version.
I already had the Mark 5 version.
As shown here...
Still very chuffed with them.

I have a set of the 1973 and they're really nice irons.
I was considering playing them today for a match but eventually opted for the George Nicoll Henry Cotton, Cotton Plus.

Ah, we could both play the same clubs for a game - that would be, er, uninteresting?

Don't know a lot about the brand but I think they'd be a 1970s or 80s model.
Lynx got a lot of love around that time, as did most of the overseas brands. I've not hit any but believe that they were a decent club.

Over-priced at £60.
I've had stuff from this seller before and it has all been good condition.
He sold a set in very good condition recently for £29.50 including postage.

I got these a while back and gave them to my mate last year as he was looking at getting into club customisation/refurbishment. He's finally pulled his finger out and got them done - and I'm very pleased with the result!
The irons are 4 to SW Wilson FG-51 from circa 91 I believe (my birth year). Tiny heads, very unforgiving, but not better feeling in golf than flushing that 4 iron.

Well done, though. Very classic look, in my opinion.
Full refurb would mean some red and black paint for the W/S Staff logo and lettering on the sole.

I'm not sure if they'd class as "vintage" or not but I've been offered a set of Wilson FG-51 irons from a mate of my dads. They're gorgeous looking things and I quite fancy taking them off his hands to use at the range and the occasional casual round. Does anyone have any information on them...

Bloody hell is that when it was!?
To be honest I'd almost forgotten I had them and then my mate messaged me out the blue asking me to remind me what I wanted doing with them
.I've asked to just keep them black just on the numbers and fg51 stamp and leave the rest chrome. Nice clean look.
