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 a rare 1955 Masters Tournament gift - a pewter ash tray. Unlike others we've seen, this one is not engraved 1955 masters Tournament on the front, but contains the Augusta National logo on the bottom. This comes from the Estate of Kathryn Murphy - a longtime Augusta National employee and secretary to Clifford Roberts.
