1933 U.S. Open Program

        With their artistic covers, early color photography and incredibly detailed written accounts, pre-1940 Major Championship Programs provide the ultimate link to the Golden Age of Golf and have become very popular with collectors. 

        Presented here is a rare early ‘30’s U.S. Open Program.  The 1933 tournament is famous for being the last time an amateur emerged victorious in the U.S. Open, as amateur Johnny Goodman fired a second round 66 to capture a lead he wouldn't relinquish.
