The Ryder Cup
1936 U.S. Amateur Contestant Badge
Very early Major Championship contestant's badges are virtually impossible to
come by. In this auction, we are very fortunate to offer pieces of a stunning
collection of these great pieces of memorabilia - some of which have never been
offered for sale to the public.
This very badge was issued to one of
the 150 or so golfers that participated in the 1936 US Amateur, which was won by
John Fischer at Garden City Golf Club. Since only about 150 of these badges
existed almost 75 years ago, surely only a handful still remain. This particular
badge remains in remarkable condition.
