PSA Type 1 Photos

We're ready to shout it from the rooftops - certified Type 1 golf photographs are the most under appreciated (and undervalued) golf collectible. Type 1 photos are the rarest of the rare - the actual photographs printed from the original negative near the time the photograph was taken. In other sports, Type 1 photos have already exploded in value - with multiple baseball photographs already eclipsing $1 million each. Expect Type 1 golf photos to form into their own collecting category in the next year or two, with prices likely soaring as a result. We have spent the past several months curating the best Type 1 golf photographs that we could find, and are pleased to offer in this auction the greatest collection of them ever assembled.

1985 Payne Stewart Photograph [PSA Type 1]

This is a wonderful early career photograph of the great Payne Stewart. This 1985 photograph pictures Payne Stewart a full 4 years before he would win his first Major Championship at the 1989 PGA Championship, and almost 14 years before he would cement his legacy at the 1999 US Open at Pinehurst. This photograph is authenticated and encapsulated by PSA as a Type 1 photo from the original negative. Approx. 7"x10".
