1934 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 1934 US Amateur, which was won by 5-time Major Champion Lawson Little at The Country Club at Brookline. Since only about 150 of these badges existed 76 years ago, surely only a handful still remain. This particular badge remains in excellent condition.
