Bobby Jones

1932 Caramel Golf Card

        The 1932 Caramel Bobby Jones card is considered the "Holy Grail" of Bobby Jones golf cards.

        Despite being from a wildly popular and valuable multi-sport set (the Babe Ruth card in the set has sold for upwards of $65,000), only 51 of these Bobby Jones cards have ever been graded by industry leader PSA. PSA lists high grade (PSA 9) examples of this card at a whopping $37,500, with cards graded PSA 5 or 6 still valued at $3,250-$4,750. A look through auction records show that the last 2 sales of a Bobby Jones 1932 Caramel Card (both graded PSA 6) brought $5,188 and $4,716 by the auction house Memory Lane in 2010.

        This rare Bobby Jones 1932 Caramel golf card is offered today with no reserve. After grading, it will become only the 52nd such card ever graded by PSA.
