1958 Masters Spectator Guide

        Augusta National has long provided its patrons with complimentary Spectator’s Guides, complete with course information and tournament history. These “Spec Guides” have always been popular with collectors, with earlier examples proving very difficult to come across.

      Presented here is a rare original Spectator Guide from the 1958 Masters Tournament, which launched the run of possibly the most popular champion in Masters history, Arnold Palmer.  The win marked the 1st of Arnold Palmer’s 4 storied Masters victories. Spec Guides from the 1950’s are hard to find, and this is a great example.
