1995 Ryder Cup Trophy from Captain's Dinner - Gary Schaal's PGA President
Presented here is Gary Schaal's Ryder Cup trophy from the 1995 Captain's Dinner. The trophy remains in excellent condition and comes with a display case. The band around the plinth features the facsimile signatures of every American Ryder Cup captain since it's inception.

Manufactured by "JB London" with that company's hallmark appearing on the band. The trophy stands 12" tall with a diameter of 4.5" and measures 6" from handle to handle.
