Gene Sarazen's Personal PGA Winner's Badge

The Gene Sarazen Estate

        We are very privileged to have the opportunity to auction off numerous items from the Gene Sarazen Estate. Each of these items comes from the personal collection of the late Gene Sarazen. This is the first time that any of the items have been offered for sale.

        You've seen the PGA Championship Contestant's Badges that are produced for PGA Championship players each year, but offered here is the most coveted PGA Badge of the all - the PGA Winner's Badge. These badges are only produced for PGA Championship Winners. Only a couple previous examples have surfaced, but offered here is certainly the finest we've seen. Gene Sarazen, of course, won both the 1922, 1923 and 1933 PGA Championships, entitling him to the elite status that this Champion's Badge conveys. This badge comes directly from the Gene Sarazen Estate, and comes with a letter of provenance from renowned collector Mark Emerson, who is assisting the Estate with the proper disposition of Mr. Sarazen's personal items.
