HOF member Tommy Armour Signed Book

        Presented here is an authentic autographs of 3-time Major Championship winner and World Golf Hall of Fame member Tommy Armour.  Armour passed away in 1968, so his autographs are very difficult to obtain.  While often overlooked because Bobby Jones dominated in his day, most people do not realize that he finished a Masters win away from accomplishing the career Grand Slam.  And despite the fact that the Masters did not begin til after Armour was well past his prime, he still managed to come in 8th at the 1937 Masters at the age of 42.  This is the first time that we have secured an original, authentic Tommy Armour signature for auction, and what a great example it is.
