Offered here is a limited edition (to 100) canvas giclee of one of the most famous paintings of Bobby Jones. The original painting was painted in oil by Wallasey member John AA Berrie in 1930 and still hangs in the Wallasey clubhouse. Bobby Jones had to qualify for the 1930 British Open at Wallasey, and then went on to win the Claret Jug at Hoylake. Before Jones left to head back to the United States and eventually win the Grand Slam later that year, he saw this finished painting and added his signature and date to the bottom right. Jones then commissioned Berrie to paint another copy for him, and that example hangs in the entryway to Augusta National Golf Club. 

This cancas giclee measures 18" x 14" and is framed to an overall size of 20" x 23".
