John Ball Original Hand Drawn/Colored Collage Print w/Nameplate by Jim McQueen - Framed
Here is an original pencil and watercolor piece of 1890 Open Champion and 8-time British Amateur winner John Ball by the famed artist Jim McQueen. McQueen has known for doing countless depictions of Jack Nicklaus and his blonde hair while teaming up with Jack in the books “My Golden Lessons” and “Golf My Way,” among others. If his style looks familiar it also could be from the hundreds of Golf Digest magazines he did artwork for during his 30 years on the staff. In this piece on the left he drew a detailed closeup of Ball in his time-period attire with a watercolor action photo of him at the top of his swing. The drawing/ painting combination is in excellent condition and if you look at it closely you can see the attention to detail that McQueen displayed from the hairs on Ball’s eyebrows to the pinstripes on his pants. Framed to 16" x 19."
