1930 US Amateur Program

(Bobby Jones Grand Slam)

And here it is – one of the most coveted golf programs known to exist; an original program from Bobby Jones' 4th and final Major Championship victory of 1930. This is one of the few known original programs from the conclusion of Bobby Jones’ Grand Slam at the 1930 U.S. Amateur at famed Merion Golf Club (then named Merion Cricket Club).

 

The program has some condition issues to note, including spotting near the spine on the top left, and some handwriting not he cover. Otherwise the cover of this program displays brilliantly. The cover has better retention of color than almost any 1930 program that we've previously encountered. A fine example of this scarce and historically important program.
