This comes from the personal collection of the late Kathryn Murphy, who was Augusta National Golf Club's longtime Executive Secretary. The Augusta Chronicle called Murphy "Clifford Roberts' right hand woman" and "one of the most influential behind-the-scenes people in Masters Tournament history."

Shortly following Seve Ballesteros' victory at the 1980 Masters Tournament, the young Spaniard sent this very classy letter to Kathryn Murphy to thank the staff members at Augusta National. Also included is Kathryn Murphy's business card.
