1927 Churchman's Famous Golfers

Complete Set

        Offered here is a rare complete set of the popular 1927 Churchman's “Famous Golfers” (Small). This set of 50 golfers includes (2) Walter Hagen cards, (2) Bobby Jones, (1) Tom Morris, (2) E. Ray, (4) Harry Vardon, (2) J.H. Taylor, and (2) James Braid. The cards in this set are in excellent condition on average.

        This is without question one of the finest golf card sets in existence, with the most recent set we sold fetching $1,317 in lesser condition. According to leading card authenticator PSA, only 27 complete sets have ever been registered, which is impossibly low number for a 50 card set. Not to mention, many of those sets have a low overall grade. Get this set graded and you'll almost certainly be well up that list.
