Babe Zaharias & Ed Furgol 1955 National Golf Day Broadside/POS Sign
Its hard to look away, and that is what advertising attempts to accomplish. The one day a year that was dedicated to golf, using the game for the greater good and raising money for in 1955 The Red Cross. On-hand for the festivities on June 4th were Babe Zaharias a year after Babe's final or 10 major victories and the 1954 US Open champion Ed Furgol. Firetruck red strip through the bottom half of this firm, patriotic, cardboard broadside reads 'National Golf Day' in white lettering just below the major winning head shots. As noted lining the bottom of this sign, the event was sponsored by Life and PGA of America in cooperation with the USGA. The sign, while used for promotion efforts nearly 80 years ago, remains in good condition as depicted in the accompanying lot photos. 17 x 12"
