Horton Smith Signed 1937 St. Petersburg Open Golf Ticket

            The St. Petersburg Open was held from 1929 to 1938 and attracted some of the best names in golf. Its winners included Craig Wood, Paul Runyan, Harry Cooper and, of course, Horton Smith. Horton Smith was quite possibly the best golfer in the world at this time - having won the inaugural Masters in 1934 and again in 1936. This original ticket from the 1937 St. Petersburg Open contains a great autograph of Horton Smith, who died in 1963.
