Al Geiberger's World Series of Golf Trophy

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.

World Series of Golf Trophy

        Presented here is an original trophy box presented to Al Geiberger at the World Series of Golf. This box was awarded to Geiberger sometime in the 1960s or 70s. We apologize that the pictures to not do this piece justice. It should clearly be polished, but we didn't want to touch it, and will leave the decision up to the winning bidder. This World Series of Golf box measures 10" x 3 1/2" x 2" and comes with a letter of authenticity from Al Geiberger himself.
