Joy, David. The Scrapbook of Old Tom Morris. Sleeping Bear Press, 2001.


This landscape-format hardcover book is a facsimile scrapbook compiled by David Joy, documenting the life and career of pioneering Scottish golfer Old Tom Morris. The binding consists of a brown mottled material designed to simulate aged leather, featuring gilt-stamped titles and decorative double-line borders. A central inset black-and-white portrait of Old Tom Morris is featured on the front cover. The interior is designed as a reproduction of an authentic scrapbook, containing printed facsimiles of 19th-century golf ephemera, including the 1812 regulations for the game of golf at St. Andrews, local 1849 police ordinances, historical photographs of figures such as Sir Hugh Lyon Playfair, and contemporary newspaper clippings. The pages include printed annotations intended to resemble original handwritten marginalia. The publisher is Sleeping Bear Press, and the volume bears ISBN 1-886947-45-7 with a printed original price of U.S. $45.00.
