Peter Butler's 1968 Masters Tournament Contestant Bag Tag
This seldom seen personal competitor Masters Tournament Bag Tag is a memento given yearly to contestants, exhibiting the 1968 'Tradition Unlike Any Other' - Bob Goalby's career defining victory. From Augusta National, it is 3” in diameter and belonged to Peter J. Butler from England. This bag tag is in excellent condition free from any “foxing” which can occur on these bag tags. Leather strap and buckle supports the tag which appears with white background surrounding the Masters logo along with dating April 11,12,13,14 1968 presents in the middle with 'Peter J. Butler' in black bold letters noted beneath. Noted Augusta National Golf Club professionals Bob Kletcke and Dave Spencer also line the bottom. Jack Nicklaus would accomplish the first title defense at The Masters Tournament the following year. Where Butler really exceeded in his career was at the Open Championship, finishing in the top 20 six times in 23 appearances.
