Pair of Masters Tournament Eagle Goblets

            Most Masters Tournament collectors or patrons are aware of the Stubben crystal given as awards for various achievements at the Masters Tournament. There are 4 such awards, this one being the crystal goblets awarded for recording an eagle during the Masters Tournament. The other awards are for Double Eagle (has only been awarded a couple times), Hole-In-One and for shooting the Low Round of each day of the tournament. Since the crystal on display in the Trophy Room and on TV each year does not contain an engraved name and year, most collectors do not realize that the recipient's name, the date of the achievement, and the hole where the Eagle was recorded are also etched onto the award. Many also do not realize that a set of 2 crystal goblets are presented to each player scoring an Eagle.

This amazing set of Stubben Crystal goblets are from the 1978 Masters Tournament. We believe that this is only the third time a piece of Masters Crystal has been offered publicly (See Lot #1 in our Summer 2007 Auction for the first, and Lot 6 in our Spring 2010 auction for the second). These beautiful pieces are in mint condition and were awarded to Mike Morley for his Eagle on Hole No. 2 during the 1978 Masters Tournament.
