Scarce Willie Park, Jr. Autograph

        The Parks were to Musselburgh what the Morrises were to St. Andrews. In fact, members of each family played some of the most historic challenge matches against each other for far more money than was ever won in sanctioned tournaments. Presented here is the exceedingly rare autograph of Willie Park, Jr., who died in 1925. Autographs of Park, Jr., winner of the 1887 and 1889 Open Championships, are seldom seen.
