The Record
Written from the sources it cites · machine-drafted for the Community to correctThe record holds one entry for the Tommy Armour Iron Master line, a putter marked with an 'A' top mark and dated to 1955 on this record. According to The Vintage Golfer, that dating is more properly a range, 1955-1956, which is the window we carry for this particular edition.
The line itself reaches back further than that single release. The Vintage Golfer reports that Iron Master putters have been around a long time, seen in 1930's catalogs, which would place the name's origins decades before the 'A' top mark edition we hold here. That's a publication's account of the line's history, not a verified figure, and the gap between a 1930s catalog appearance and a mid-1950s release is not one we can bridge with what's in front of us.
What the record shows, then, is a single dated point on a longer timeline: one Iron Master, carrying the 'A' top mark, placed by The Vintage Golfer in 1955 or 1956, standing in for a name that the same source says had already been in Tommy Armour's catalogs for a generation.
