That is pretty cool Ron. And with pre-1966 stamp too, probably a good bit older based on some things I haven't confirmed, and it has been well used! The things that turn up...
I wonder who did the engraving? The style and composition somehow looks familiar. ON the OP, the pictures show an etched Randall-made stamp, and then pictures of a belt.. but no pictures showing any connection between stamp and belt. Is there a knife or something hidden in the belt? Last edited by Jacknola; 03-31-2016 at 08:44 AM. |

Thanks, Jack. I believe it was done by either Bo or Tom Leschorn. Rick Bowles told me he believes he saw one that GTR owned that was pretty much identical.

Jack I do believe the belt has a hidden dagger type thingie as a buckle.

Ron that looks like something that Bo would have worn. It is very cool!

Thanks, Ronnie. I've seen some strange things like the belt buckle pop up on e-bay under the heading of Randall from time to time. Here is another. It is some sort of ID tag made from a scrap of Belgian Congo ivory to include the customs import stamp on the back:

Jack,
I think this is the picture you asked the OP for: |

Thanks Ron. I kinda thought there had to be a blade in that belt somewhere... odd that the person offering the item didn't include a picture of it. The blade is "odd" too.
I read somewhere that Mr. Randall made ID tags of scrap ivory to attach to his golf bag. Being a golfer myself, I can testify that most have a plastic ID tag on bag, usually provided by the pro. Google will show many examples. Thanks again for showing the cool stuff. |

He sent me a photo pac of 5 pictures. One is the same as posted above. I didn't bother wasting my time to post his pics, since it's a farce in my eye's anyhow.....lol

Not unlike the Bowen I bought 40 or 50 years ago...
