Al Geiberger's Putter

Used to Win 1966 PGA Championship

The "Mr. 59" Al Geiberger Collection

        In this auction, we have the extreme pleasure of offering virtually the entire collection of "Mr. 59" Al Geiberger. Ryan and Bob recently flew out to Palm Springs to shoot Mr. Geiberger and his collection for the Pilot episode of a new reality TV show based on Green Jacket Auctions. While we were there, Al Geiberger decided that rather than continuing to keep his collection packed away in a California storage facility, he felt that it was his duty to share his memorabilia with the world. Nothing was off limits to Green Jacket Auctions. We came home with some of the most historic pieces of golf memorabilia that we have ever offered, including Al Geiberger's Wannamaker Trophy and his actual golf clubs from the 59 Round. We hope that you enjoy viewing - and bidding on - the "Mr. 59" Al Geiberger collection.

1966 PGA Championship Winning Putter

        Offered here is Al Geiberger's actual putter that he used during the 4 rounds of his 1966 PGA Championship victory at Firestone Country Club in Ohio. This putter was used by Mr. Geiberger for approximately 2 years, including in all 4 Major Championships. Interestingly, Al did not set aside his driver, 3 wood or golf bag from the 1966 PGA Championship, so this putter and the irons offered separately in Lot ___ are the only tournament-used memorabilia from Al Geiberger's 1966 PGA Championship win that still exist.

         Al Geiberger's Tournament-Used 1966 PGA Championship putter is being auctioned by Al Geiberger himself, and comes with a letter of authenticity from Al Geiberger.
