Offered here are three original Fruitland Nurseries documents from the 1920s. Bobby Jones and his investors purchased the Fruitland Nurseries property in 1931, and Augusta National Golf Club opened its doors in 1933. Included in this lot are the following:

1921 Fruitland Nurseries - Statement

1922 Fruitland Nurseries - Work Order to move tree

1927 Fruitland Nurseries - Letter on behalf of an employee
