In 1939, an invitational tournament was held at Midlothian CC in Illinois to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of Walter Hagen's 1st Major Championship victory at the 1914 US Open at Midlothian. Offered here is an actual scorecard from that day that is autographed by the legendary participants in the event, including Walter Hagen, Horton Smith, Gene Sarazen, Byron Nelson, Ed Dudley, Paul Runyan, Dick Metz, and Ralph Guldahl. This scorecard was used to record the playing group of Dick Metz, Byron Nelson, Jack Burke, and Ed Dudley.
Also included in this lot is an original ticket from the Walter Hagen 25th Anniversary Invitational at Midlothian (cut in half), and a Midlothian booklet.
