Online Auctions/Local Images (Moderated by BLeafe) / 1930s Hackensack Golf Club Breaking 100 Sterling Brooch

http://cgi.ebay.com/1930s-Hackensack-Golf-Club-Breaking-100-Sterling-Brooch-/330545979115?pt=Vintage_Fine_Jewelry&hash=item4cf6135eeb

Description:

I purchased this brooch about 40 years ago from an estate sale along with other golfing memorabilia.  It is beautifully crafted from sterling silver marking a golfer breaking a score of 100.  The initials H.G.C. stand for the prestigious Hackensack Golf Club of which the decedent was a long time member.  The daughter was present at the estate sale and informed me that her father broke the score of 100 at the club's course just prior to WW2 breaking out in Europe. 

The Hackensack Golf Club was founded in 1899 and is one of the oldest private golf clubs in the United States.   It is located in Oradell, New Jersey.

The barrel clasp works perfectly.   The back is marked "Sterling" and the piece has beautiful patina characteristic of aged silver.

SNOWDOMES

Big snows make for nice winter pictures, but little snows have an accentuating charm all their own.

I had to get these early this morning before the sun came out and melted all the snow.

Sepia would give it a brown or reddish-brown cast. I just put it in iPhoto and moved the saturation slide all the way to zero to make it B&W.
