Herman Keiser Signed

White Masters Pin Flag

        Presented here is the rare unofficial White Masters Flag from the early 1990's. Despite not being produced by Augusta National, this flag has long been sought-after by collectors, as only 100 of them are believed to exist - all of which were single-signed by a Masters Champion. The flag was created by an Ohio collector in the early 1990's for the purpose of obtaining Masters Champions autographs - meaning that this collector had the idea of creating a Masters flag years before Augusta National even did.

        This great Masters flag is one of the few Masters flags in existence containing an authentic signature of 1946 Masters Champion Herman Keiser, who passed away in 2003, but was confined to a wheel chair and lived in a nursing home for several years before then. It is also one of the only single-signed Herman Keiser Masters flags, and is one of the only known signed Keiser flags with the added the notation "Masters 1946".
