Golfing Curios and 'The Like' by Harry B. Wood - 1920 First Edition
Golfing Curios and 'The Like' by Harry B. Wood, published in 1910 by Sherratt & Hughes, is widely celebrated as the world's very first dedicated guide to collecting golf memorabilia (Golfiana).
Written by one of the game's earliest and most prolific antiquarians, this foundational volume serves as both a detailed inventory of Wood's personal Manchester-based collection and an essential reference blueprint for high-end golf libraries. It was the first book to formalise the collection of golf antiques, moving the hobby beyond casual accumulation into a structured study.
