1949 Ryder Cup Menu Signed

by Both American & British Teams

        
        At each Ryder Cup, a grand dinner is held. Some say that this dinner is unquestionably the highlight of each Ryder Cup. The dinner is not only attended by a "who's who" of golfing elite, but over the years has also seen the likes of Michael Jordan, numerous U.S. Presidents, and the Royal Family. This is a highly coveted menu from the 1949 Ryder Cup, which was won by the U.S. squad by a score of 7 - 5 at Ganton Golf Club in Scorborough, England.

        Presented here is certainly one of the most amazing Ryder Cup menus ever offered. Menus are often found with signatures of one team or another, but this menu actually contains autographs of both the American and British teams.

        This fully-signed 1949 Ryder Cup menu comes from the personal collection of former Ryder Cup Team Member Ed Dudley.

Some of the great autographs that adorn the menu are:

Ed Dudley
Jimmy Demaret
Arthur Havers
Alf Padgham
Dai Rees
Lloyd Mangrum
Chick Harbert
Max Faulkner
