Horton Smith maintains a cult-like following among golf collectors. Unfortunately, there are far too few pieces of memorabilia from the inaugural Masters Champion. Offered here is unquestionably one of the finest.
This is Horton Smith's personal Hole in One medal from his hole in one during the 1st round of the 1942 Bing Crosby Pro-Am on January 31, 1942. Horton Smith's hole in one occurred on the 14th hole of Rancho Sante Fe Golf Club.
This piece originally belonged to Mort Olman, perhaps the most famous golf collector/dealer/author in history. Made of sterling silver, and produced by Jessop. 1 1/16" x 3/4" engraved on back "Horton Smith Jan. 31, 42." Comes with a custom 7 1/2" x 5 1/2" wooden and plexiglass display case.
