Went to the local Goodwill today just to look around, and saw a Spalding Cash in Special putter... At first glance it looked like a straight up putt-putt putter, but with farther evaluation, I noticed the grip was extraordinarily long, and it looked tone in great condition! Bought if for $1.50... So on to the help... History with this putter? Could a timeframe be distributed to this putter? With some quick research it looks like it came into production in the 30's, and lasted 50 years... Any chance to tell this specific putters estimated year? With a 50 year range, this putter had to be successful... Any confirmation on that? What do you believe this putters worth is? Will provide more pictures if asked!

History with this putter?

Could a timeframe be distributed to this putter? With some quick research it looks like it came into production in the 30's, and lasted 50 years... Any chance to tell this specific putters estimated year?

With a 50 year range, this putter had to be successful... Any confirmation on that?

What do you believe this putters worth is?

Based on the picture, my guess it is one of the newer models  - more toward the 1970s than the 30s or 40s. I base that on the fact that early models had patent numbers on them. Those tend to be the more collectible versions. Also, the Cash In had many variants, both in design and material. I would liken it to Acushnet and "Bullseye" putters - it was more a category of putter than a specific model.

A few other pictures might help folks identify it. The grip, if original, can be an indicator and also the ferrule, but I wouldn't get too hopeful that you have found buried treasure. As you note, they were a pretty popular and long running model so there are still a lot out there.

      Day 134 (26 Apr 24) - played Minnesott today, worked with the mid-irons and approaches (especially the 7i).  Scoring was a little higher, but I was focused on making the needed adjustments to the swing to achieve desired distances.

      I honestly believe if they play longer tees by 300-400 yards, closer to or over 7,000 yards, more rough, tougher greens, women's golf will become much more gripping.  BTW, if it weren't for Scottie killing it right now, men's golf isn't exactly compelling.

      Day 542, April 26, 2024 A lesson no-show, no-called (he had the wrong time even though the last text was confirming the time… 😛), so I used 45 minutes or so of that time to get some good work in.

      Yeah, that. It stands out… because it's so rare. And interest in Caitlin Clark will likely result in a very small bump to the WNBA or something… and then it will go back down to very low viewership numbers. Like it's always had. A small portion, yep. It doesn't help that she lost, either. Girls often don't even want to watch women playing sports. My daughter golfs… I watch more LPGA Tour golf than she does, and it's not even close. I watch more LPGA Tour golf than PGA Tour golf, even. She watches very little of either. It's just the way it is. Yes, it's a bit of a vicious cycle, but… how do you break it? If you invest a ton of money into broadcasting an LPGA Tour event, the same coverage you'd spend on a men's event… you'll lose a ton of money. It'd take decades to build up the interest. Even with interest in the PGA Tour declining.
