Al Geiberger's 1966 PGA Champion

Liquor Decanter

The "Mr. 59" Al Geiberger Collection

        In this auction, we have the extreme pleasure of offering virtually the entire collection of "Mr. 59" Al Geiberger. Ryan and Bob recently flew out to Palm Springs to shoot Mr. Geiberger and his collection for the Pilot episode of a new reality TV show based on Green Jacket Auctions. While we were there, Al Geiberger decided that rather than continuing to keep his collection packed away in a California storage facility, he felt that it was his duty to share his memorabilia with the world. Nothing was off limits to Green Jacket Auctions. We came home with some of the most historic pieces of golf memorabilia that we have ever offered, including Al Geiberger's Wannamaker Trophy and his actual golf clubs from the 59 Round. We hope that you enjoy viewing - and bidding on - the "Mr. 59" Al Geiberger collection.

1966 PGA Champion Liquor Decanter

        Offered here is an original diamond-inlaid liquor decanter that was presented to Al Geiberger for winning the 1966 PGA Championship. Mr. Geiberger does not recall if this was awarded to him in 1966 or if it was awarded to him as a past PGA Champion a couple years later.

        This high quality crystal decanter was made by the world famous Orrefors of Sweden, and has a diamond inlaid above the PGA logo. The stopper does have a small chip, but otherwise this decanter is simply stunning.

        This 1966 PGA Champion decanter is being auctioned today by Al Geiberger himself, and comes with a letter of authenticity from Al Geiberger.
