Offered here is a massive Artist’s Proof bronze by the well-regarded sculptor Chapel. This bronze depicts Bobby Jones hitting out of the Cottage Bunker in the 1930 British Amateur – when Jones holed the 140 yard bunker shot and carded an eagle on the 4th hole en route to victory (and, eventually, the Grand Slam).
Unlike many other Bobby Jones bronzes out there, this piece was officially authorized by the heirs of Bobby Jones.
This is one of only 500 statues produced in 1998, of which just 50 were Artist Proofs – this being #1. Many (likely most) of the statues produced were the small version.
This bronze is very large. It stands 35" tall in total and weighs a hefty 85 pounds! On a revolving base. We sold the smaller 18" version of this exquisite bronze back in 2015 for over $6,500. This "half life size" bronze is a show stopper.
