Bobby Jones 1930 US Amateur United Newspictures Original Photo w/ Fountain Pen Notation - Grand Slam Completion
This fantastic, crystal clear action shot of 1930 US Amateur champion Bobby Jones completing the grand slam at Merion mid-swing in front of the gallery and his playing partner is one of our favorite original photos we have auctioned over the years. Even better, the photo which came from the then sportswriter Corinne Elizabeth 'Betty' Hardesty scrapbook by way of a descendant was notated presumably by her: 'Bobby Jones in National Open Golf Title Championships' is written in fountain pen diagonally towards the bottom right corner describing the image in time-period ink. United Newspictures studio out of New York City is stamped on the verso. 8" x 10".
