Bernard Darwin Handwritten and Signed Letter

Presented here is a rare handwritten and signed letter of the greatest golf writer of all-time, Bernard Darwin. Darwin died in 1961, long before autographs were extensively collected, which explains the scarcity of his signatures.

Despite no formal training as a journalist (he was an attorney), Darwin dedicated his life to writing about golf and was truly a pioneer in the field. Darwin was the first person in the world to write about golf on a daily basis, and may still be the most prolific golf writer ever.

This two-sided letter is written completely by hand by the great journalist and has been beautifully signed by Darwin at its conclusion. This letter is dated June 12, 1944. A truly remarkable piece of golf history.
