Offered here is a massive Artist’s Proof bronze by the well-regarded sculptor Chapel. This bronze depicts Bobby Jones in 1930 hitting "The Drive".  Unlike many other Bobby Jones bronzes out there, this piece was officially authorized by the heirs of Bobby Jones.

This is one of only 35 statues produced in 1998, of which just 3 were Artist Proofs – this being #1. Another 350 much smaller statues were produced. 

This bronze is very large. It stands 35" tall in total and weighs a hefty 85 pounds! On a revolving base.  We sold the smaller 18" version of this exquisite bronze back in 2015 for over $6,500. This "half life size" bronze is a show stopper.

**Shipping: Expect shipping charges to be as much as a few hundred dollars depending on your location from our New Jersey warehouse. International buyers are instructed to pre-arrange pickup.
