2019 April Memorabilia Auction Featuring PGA REACH Collection
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 4/14/2019
Pine Valley Golf Club Member Pamphlet, Dormitory Quiet Info Card, & USGA Golf Journal
Pine Valley GC was ranked the number one course in Golf Magazine's 100 Top Courses in the U.S. and the World in both 2012 and 2015. Despite being regarded as one of the world's greatest golf courses, Pine Valley has never hosted a major professional tournament, mainly due to the lack of room to accommodate the tens of thousands of patrons. Staying true to who they are, the club has stated that they have no intentions to alter the course layout or remove trees in order to host a major. Here are three paper items from Pine Valley, spanning many years of club existence. "That Pine Valley" was an article that was published in The Golf Journal in 1964 and reprinted in brochure form, likely for members of the Pine Valley Golf Club to enjoy. The second item in this lot is a "Quiet" notice that dates back to the earlier years of the club, explaining that the founders built the dormitories a good distance away from the members and guests' quarter so they would be "assured a quiet night's rest." The third item is a pamphlet that is from club president John Arthur Brown regarding an article that was written about the PVGC in London, England. Pine Valley Golf Club subject matter is highly coveted, especially when it contains interesting content.
