1959 Masters Tournament SERIES BADGE #6122 - Art Wall Winner
Here we have a 1959 Masters Tournament Series Badge #6122 available to bidders. The 1959 Masters marked the debut of Jack Nicklaus at age 19. The real story of the 1959 Masters Tournament, however, was the dramatic rise of Art Wall, Jr., who carded a final round of 66 while overtaking 12 golfers to win his only major championship. Wall, Jr. would connect on birdies on five of the final six holes at Augusta National, pulling away from Cary Middelcoff, who finished one stroke behind the winner, and two strokes ahead of Arnold Palmer, who was a co-leader entering Sunday's final round. This 1959 Masters Series Badge is in great condition, with the original string intact and showing very slight wear outside of some fraying along the borders of the ticket. There is also a slight crease in the upper left hand front corner. A perfect item for any Masters collector.
