Introduced in 1896, Musselburgh golf balls were made from solid gutta percha by J&D Clark in Musselburgh, Scotland. 

This example is mint, never used, and still has a little bit of its original wrapping tissue paper stuck to its side, as can be seen in a photo. The paper is easily removed, if desired, by wetting it with a few drops of water.

Another fantastic ball!
