The Dunlop '65 golf ball was made to celebrate Henry Cotton's second round 65 in the 1934 Open Championship at Sandwich, and became the most popular ball of them all. This figure (smaller than the normal Dunlop figures at 12") was made in limited numbers later that year. This is the third hardest Golf Ball advertising piece to find. All original with no repairs or repaint, and includes all the golf clubs. Base reads WE PLAY DUNLOP '65. 12 inches tall.
