1930 Bobby Jones Perfect Swing Wire Photo
As you've no doubt seen by now, this Winter Golf
Auction by Green Jacket Auctions represents one of the greatest sales of golf
photographs in history. From Old Tom Morris & the origins of professional golf
to Bobby Jones & the founding of Augusta National, many of the offered
photographs are among the finest such examples in the hobby.
Offered here is an original 1930
photograph of Bobby Jones displaying his perfect swing at the absolute pinnacle
of his career. Dated on the back May 1930, Bobby was just about to start the
greatest run in Golf History, winning all four Major Championships in one year.
He demonstrates for the camera the flawless swing that would within a few months
make him the most famous athlete in the world.
Museum quality 8"x10" is crystal
clear and so detailed you can see the spots where he forgot to iron his pants
that morning! Condition is quite nice with a touch of wear to the corners being
the only thing knocking it down to a 9.5/10. Easily one of the top Bobby Jones
images in the hobby and a powerful and historic date on the back.
