1940 Masters Sunday Ticket

        Tickets from early Masters Tournaments are extremely difficult to find. The tournament did not move to the more durable "badges" until 1961 - with earlier examples simply made out of paper. Pre-WWII examples are exceedingly rare, including the one presented here.

        This Sunday ticket for the 1940 Masters enabled its owner to attend the 7th Masters Tournament held, and to see Jimmy Demaret win his first (of 3) Masters Tournament victory. In fact, we know the owner attended the event as indicated by the hole punches signifying entrance into the 1940 Masters Tournament.
