Bing Crosby Letter to Ed Dudley
Thanking Him For a New Putter
In this auction, we have the extreme privilege of offering the personal
collection of the late Ed Dudley. In addition to being a 15 time winner on the
PGA Tour, Dudley is probably best known for being the 1st Head Pro at Augusta
National. Not only was he Head Pro at Augusta, Dudley also competed in every
Masters Tournament from 1934 to 1950. Dudley was also the golf coach for Dwight
Eisenhower, Bing Crosby and Bob Hope.
This is an original Dec 29th, 1960
letter from Bing Crosby to Ed Dudley thanking Dudley for sending him a putter.
The letter is on Bing Crosby's own letterhead and is signed "Bing".
