The Schenectady Putter
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Tom Wilkinson (1911) This delightful cartoon by Tom Wilkinson, dated 1911, captures the essence of the early days of golf as a popular pastime in America. Entitled "The Schenectady Putter," the image showcases a humorous scene on the golf course, with three gentlemen engaged in a friendly game. The focus of the cartoon is on the golfer in the foreground, who is in the midst of an unconventional swing. His putter, shaped like a large, bulbous Schenectady potbelly stove, is the source of both amusement and intrigue. The golfer's determined expression and the exaggerated stance add to the humor of the situation, as he attempts to make the most of this unusual club. Golf, which originated in Scotland in the late 15th century, had gained significant popularity in the United States by the early 20th century. Tom Wilkinson's cartoon reflects the playful spirit of the sport and the ingenuity of golfers, who were always on the lookout for innovative ways to improve their game. The cartoon's intricate details and expressive characters are a testament to Wilkinson's artistic skill. The lush green landscape, complete with trees, flowers, and a picturesque lake in the background, further enhance the idyllic setting. The use of contrasting colors and shading adds depth and dimension to the image, making it a charming and timeless representation of a beloved pastime. Tom Wilkinson's "The Schenectady Putter" is not only a fascinating glimpse into the history of golf but also a delightful work of art that continues to captivate and entertain audiences today.
