Arnold Palmer Signed Challenge Golf TV Contract

            In 1963, ABC first aired the television show "Challenge Golf."  A total of 13 episodes were made that year, and each pitted Arnold Palmer and Gary Player against two challengers, which included a young Jack Nicklaus, Byron Nelson, Sam Snead and other greats of the day.  Arnold Palmer and Gary Player were also the hosts of the popular television show, and provided insight on the course and the golf action throughout each round. 

            Presented here is an actual part of Arnold Palmer's television contract for that show, which was signed and hand-dated by Palmer in September 1962.
