This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 3/6/2023
c. 1960's Augusta National Masters Champs Ceremony De Soto Spring Water Glass Jug
Spotted in the 1963 Masters Tournament trophy ceremony next to the trophy on the oblong table in front of Clifford Roberts is a large glass water jug with 'De Soto Spring Water' integrated into the Augusta National Golf Club United States logo. Desoto Spring Pond is an element in George W. Cobb's Par Three Course design, like this water, named after the Spanish Explorer that traveled through the Augusta, Georgia area in the 16th century. As Jack first slipped the green coat over his broad shoulders, the flared water vase was front and center. 60 years later, it remains in good condition with the De Soto Spring Water/Augusta National Golf Club logo in green and a matching cap original to the jug sealing it on top. The final photo is for reference of that day, while difficult to make out the detailing. 9 1/2" tall
