I owned a bag just like it. I got it in 1990. The material is called naugahide which is sort of a synthetic material. The bags were made by Burton Mfg. which was a big bag manufacturer back then. An actual leather bag had a dull finish and didn&amp;#39;t have the sheen of naugahide. Leather also weighed a lot more. I can&amp;#39;t remember what I paid for the bag. I&amp;#39;m guessing $200-250. The strap is cowhide. I don&amp;#39;t have a clue as to how much you should sell it for. Hope this helps.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: inherited, gorgeous leather titleist tour staff bag from the....40s? 50s? 60s? help!</title><link>https://www.titleist.com.au/teamtitleist/thread/265525?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sun, 12 Apr 2020 14:16:14 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">9ab519fc-5311-4952-85cd-0a0ceffb73fb:3ec03797-e946-4264-8d29-bf273779726d</guid><dc:creator>Doug E</dc:creator><description>Looks leather to me, at least in one of the pictures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
IMO, the bag probably isn&amp;#39;t something today&amp;#39;s golfer would be interested in for use on the course, however, there may be some value in it from an &amp;quot;Antiques&amp;quot; perspective. Someone might want it to decorate a classic-styled man cave. Or, a photographic prop-house, prop-locator service, or a movie studio could find interest in stuff like this for producing 1950-60s period pieces; eg. a perfect prop for a golf scene on &amp;quot;Mad Men.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I would certainly not give it away if I were you. Consider checking with prop houses. I would send pics to as many of those types of businesses as possible, just so they can keep it on file for when a request for 50s-60s period golf stuff comes in. Having been a creative director in advertising and marketing communications most of my 40-year career, I can tell you someone out there needs, or will need a prop like this at some point. (You can&amp;#39;t imagine some of the various distinctive stuff I&amp;#39;ve had prop services and photographers locate for use in shoots I&amp;#39;ve directed in the past.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In the meantime, I&amp;#39;d suggest you keep it on display in in your home somewhere, to fondly remind you of your Dad everyday.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: inherited, gorgeous leather titleist tour staff bag from the....40s? 50s? 60s? help!</title><link>https://www.titleist.com.au/teamtitleist/thread/265504?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sun, 12 Apr 2020 00:46:44 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">9ab519fc-5311-4952-85cd-0a0ceffb73fb:7336df87-e9c9-4fff-9dae-ab426627d42a</guid><dc:creator>Joshua B</dc:creator><description>Very cool bag.  I’d guess late 70s early 80s  but not certain.  I’m following this thread bc I’d like to know as well now...I’m sure there is a long standing enthusiast who had this bag and will give the info.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
