Augusta National Golf Club Photo
As you've no doubt seen by now, this Winter Golf
Auction by Green Jacket Auctions represents one of the greatest sales of golf
photographs in history. From Old Tom Morris & the origins of professional golf
to Bobby Jones & the founding of Augusta National, many of the offered
photographs are among the finest such examples in the hobby.
Offered here is an original
photograph from the Grand Opening of Augusta National Golf Club in 1933. This is
the first time we have ever seen this image, which depicts the editor of TIME
Magazine, John Martin, teeing off at Augusta National on the very first day it
was open - January 17, 1933.
This original photograph is in excellent condition and measures 6"x8".
