Jack Fleck's 1962 Masters Contestant Pin - Arnold Palmer's 3rd Masters Victory
Featuring the Tournament's first 3-way playoff, Arnie would prove too much and captured his third victorious run in Augusta. This 1964 Masters Contestant Pin would please any collector. With only 109 contestants appearing in the 1962 Masters, this red and white 1 1/4" x 1 1/2" plastic badge is highly elusive to Masters collectors. With badge #1 going to the past years champion each badge is then issued according to when the player shows up for the Masters and registers for the tournament. In 1962, Fleck received #23 as would also be listed on the Masters pairing sheet from that year. With original pin still in place, this contestants pins memorable Augusta National design packs a big punch in the way of Masters collectables.
