The Ryder Cup
Scarce Herman Keiser Signed Early 90's
White Masters Flag
Presented here is the rare unofficial White Masters Flag from the early 1990's.
Despite not being produced by Augusta National, this flag has long been
sought-after by collectors, as only 100 of them are believed to exist - all of
which were single-signed by a Masters Champion. The flag was created by an Ohio
collector in the early 1990's for the purpose of obtaining Masters Champions
autographs - meaning that this collector had the idea of creating a Masters flag
years before The Masters Tournament even did. One of these flags shows up ever
year or two, and usually commands top dollar with collectors. We are fortunate
to present three of these scarce flags in this auction.
This great Masters flag is one of the
few Masters flags in existence containing an authentic signature of 1947
Masters Champion Herman Keiser, who passed away in 2003, but was confined to a
wheel chair and lived in a nursing home for several years before then. It is
also only of the only single-signed Herman Keiser Masters flags,, and is the
only known signed Keiser flag with the added the notation "Masters 1947". This
great flag comes with a certificate of authenticity from Green Jacket Auctions.
