Herman Keiser Autographed Augusta National Scorecard with Year of Birth Inscription
Herman Keiser is best known for winning the 1946 Masters Tournament. He achieved golfing immortality at the 1946 Masters Tournament when he took the lead on the third hole and never looked back, defeating Hogan by one stroke to earn $2,500 in first prize money. Keiser described his Masters win as "the greatest thing that ever happened to me." He won two more PGA Tour events that season. Keiser retired in the 1950s, having won five tournaments during his PGA career. He returned to live in Ohio, where he purchased a driving range. He died in Akron in 2003 from complications of Alzheimer's disease at the age of 89. You may find inscriptions from Keiser stating his 1946 Masters victory, but have you seen his birth year inscription?
