Actual Masters Flag from Augusta National Golf Club Flagpole

            Presented here is truly significant piece of Masters Memorabilia.  Some items are so rare that collectors never even contemplate that they will ever be offered for sale;  Presented here is one such item.  This is the actual, huge Masters flag that hung on the famous flag pole outside Augusta National Golf Club's esteemed clubhouse.  This flag is surely familiar to all golfers and viewers of the Masters Tournament each year.  This is the first time this flag has never been offered for sale, and it's hard to imagine another one becoming available any time in the near future.

            Presented here is an actual flag that flew outside the Augusta National Clubhouse.  This spectacular flag was given to our consignor, a departing Augusta National employee, in 1991.  It comes with a detailed letter attesting to his extensive employment at Augusta National Golf Club, and the way he obtained this significant piece.  This great flag measures an incredible 5 feet by 9 feet.  This particular flag shows tremendous use, and likely flew outside of Augusta National for a long period of time, and multiple Masters Tournaments.
