1960 Masters Tournament Gift

- Ladies Buxton Wallet

         Augusta National has a long history of presenting unique gifts to its members and the players at each year's Masters Tournament. These Augusta National gifts are sought-after by collectors and occasionally make it to the collector market in varying conditions.

        Presented here is one of the rarest Masters Tournament gifts, and one of the only gift that we've never had the privilege of offering for auction.

        This is a 1960 Masters Tournament Ladies Buxton Wallet, which was presented to Clifford Roberts' longtime secretary Mary Palmer Pierce. The well-used wallet contains an incredible button which reads "Masters Tournament 1960".
