Masters Par 3 Contest

Closest to the Pin Award 

"Mr. 59" AL GEIBERGER COLLECTION

        Ask any collector about "Masters Crystal" and their eyes will likely light up. The Masters Tournament famously awards crystal for various accomplishments during the tournament each year. What many collectors do not realize is that Augusta National also awards prizes during the famous Wednesday Par 3 Contest.

        Offered here is a gorgeous Crystal Masters Tournament pitcher, which was awarded to Al Geiberger for being Closest to the Pin at a Masters Tournament Par 3 Contest in the 1960's or 70s. More research will need to be done to determine the exact date, as Mr. Geiberger does not recall. This impressive pitcher is approximately 5 1/2" tall.

        Letter of Authenticity from Mr. 59 Al Geiberger
