Autograph from 1935 PGA Championship Winner Johnny Revolta

        Presented here a rare autograph of 1935 PGA Championship winner Johnny Revolta, along with a great black and white photo of the champion.  Revolta was a fixture of the PGA Tour during the 1930's and 1940's, and not only won the 1935 PGA Championship (by defeating Tommy Armour), but also finished in the top 25 of the five first Masters Tournaments.  In all, Revolta won 18 times on the PGA Tour.  Johnny Revolta's autographs are very hard to find, and are missing from most golf autograph or PGA Championship collections. The signature is nice and was removed from one of Revolta's letters.  There is a small slit under the autograph that in no way detracts from the signature.
