Offered here is a scarce autographed cabinet card photo of James Ogilvy Fairlie - the founder of the Open Championship. This circa late 1860s cabinet card photo of Fairlie was taken in Ayr, Scotland, where Fairlie spent his final days and where he passed away in 1870. Wonderful autograph of Fairlie in fountain pen. Almost certainly one of the only autographed photos of the Founder of the Open Championship that exists. 6 1/2 x 4 1/8.
