Ben Hogan Signed Poster of
Famous 1 Iron Shot -
1950 Merion U.S. Open
 

Here we have it, the most iconic modern golf image - Ben Hogan's 1 iron shot at Merion in the 1950 U.S. Open. Offered here is that image in poster form, measuring 17" x 24 1/2". What makes this lot incredibly rare is that the poster has been signed by The Hawk himself … a nice, vintage Ben Hogan signature. 

This poster was produced by the Ben Hogan company in 1993. It was produced with a facsimile signature of Hogan on the bottom right, and this examples has also been autographed by Hogan himself a couple inches from that spot. The poster has a couple small creases in it that when framed should not show, or if dry mounted they will come out.
