1937 Sam Snead Tour Rookie

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 a rare original 1937 photograph of a baby faced Sam Snead early in his first season as a professional golfer!

        Reverse has a handwritten identification and a stamp and date from NEA. Condition of this large 8"x10" photo is a wonderful 10/10 and the image has to be one of the best of Sam Snead we've ever seen.
