1936 US Open Contestants Badge

Any items tied to pre-WWII Major Championships are highly collectible, and this one is no exception, a Contestants Badge from the 1936 U.S. Open.  The 1936 U.S. Open was held at famed Baltusrol, whereby Tony Manero edged “Lighthorse” Harry Cooper in an exciting contest.  This Badge is in exceptional condition and is one of only 159 that were originally created and issued to the starting participants.
