This is a hard to find original badge from the 1949 Masters Tournament. The '49 Masters was one of the most famous in history. Not only did Sam Snead win his first Masters title, but green jackets were awarded for the first time. This 1949 badge was issued as a media credential for the Radio broadcast. Quite impressively, it still contains its original paper insert for John Winters.
