Offered here is a circa 1930 original photograph of Walter Hagen visiting Japan during his legendary world tour. Slightly larger than 8 x 10 and with beautiful sepia tones, this photograph from Hagen and Kirkwood’s tour of Japan demonstrates the global reach of this golfing superstar and his trick shot sidekick Joe Kirkwood. The photo shows Hagen elegantly dressed in a suit, tie, and knickers conferring with a Japanese diplomat. In the foreground is a Japanese chauffer and a grand automobile with Japanese plates. Kirkwood stands to the right. Some light overall wear.
