Second Ever Sports Illustrated Issue Magazine - August 23, 1954
Here is the second issue of Sports Illustrated and first containing a golf-themed cover image, dated August 23, 1954. The fully intact issue features a still life of red, plaid and black mid-century golf bags lined up in a row. Instead of highlighting a specific tournament or player, Sports Illustrated produced this cover with the United States' heightened interest in the game of golf in mind. This issue does not include the sheet of baseball cards. It is in fair to good condition, with a mailing label. This is a highly sought after issue that does not come to auction often.
