This is unquestionably one of our favorite signed photos that we've ever encountered. This oversized photograph depicts Ben Hogan and Arnold Palmer smoking on the tee box at Augusta National during the 1966 Masters Tournament. It is autographed by both Ben Hogan and Arnold Palmer. We're not sure how many of these photos were ever signed by both Hogan and Palmer, though this is one of only two we've ever seen. 

This is a very large, impressive piece. Matted to an overall 29 1/2" wide x 27 5/8", and inside the mat (visible image) measures an impressive 25 5/8" wide by 19 5/8" 

Authenticated by Beckett Authentication (the digital Beckett authentication number is active, though we only have a photocopy of the original LOA)
