Al Geiberger's

1967 Champion's Dinner Silver Box

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.

1967 Champion's Dinner Silver Box

        When 1966 PGA Champion Al Geiberger returned to the 1967 PGA Championship, he hosted the annual Champions' Dinner for the other living PGA Champs. As tradition has it, the defending Champion presents each other Champion with a gift. Al Geiberger's gift to his fellow PGA Champions at the 1967 Champions' Dinner was this Sterling Silver box. This is Al Geiberger's personal box that he gave out as Champions' Dinner host.

        This Sterling Silver box is 7 1/2" long x 3 1/4" deep x 2" high. The box is in good condition, with a small rear corner ding. It comes with a letter of authenticity from Al Geiberger himself.
