High Grade Whitman & Barnes
Diamond Pattern Gutty Golf Ball 

This is a high grade Whitman & Barnes gutty golf ball. This rare diamond pattern golf ball is a leading example and a must-own for any fine golf ball collection. Only a couple dozen examples or so are known to exist, with this unquestionably being among the finest.

The ball also has wonderful provenance, as it came from noted collector Frank Hardison. Hardison spent over 70 years collecting and is most-known for his purchase of the golf balls from the famous Harry B. Wood collection. Hardison owned this particular ball for over 30 years.
