Arnold Palmer Signed Augusta National Couse Flown Flag

This is the first time we have offered an Arnold Palmer signed Augusta National Golf Club course flown flag. The four time champion of the Masters (1958,60,62,64), Palmer has signed in black sharpie with a 10/10 strength signature in the right hand corner of the flag. The autograph of “The King” was obtained by Palmer’s P.R. Man Doc Griffin as a favor to a long time member of the Augusta Chronicle’s sports department in 2004 the year Arnie appeared in his 50th straight Masters, a feat that the newspaperman notates boldly in the upper left hand corner of flag. This same Augusta native had previously been gifted the National’s course flown flag. If you were ever fortunate enough to play the Augusta National a flag similar to this is what would great you when you reached the first green. You can also see this flag on display at the Masters as it serves as the flag on the Par 3 course and is also used on the practice greens. This flag measuring 13 3/4"H by 19 1/4"W (Approx.) is regarded as tough to come by, with the powers to be at the Augusta National supposedly destroying used flags. This pin flag dodged the Grim Reaper of flags even though its use would be considered "moderate". With the plastic cylinder that separates flag from pin clipped away. Balance of flag is free of rips and tears, but displays consistent use. A stunning memento from a treasured American course, signed by one of it’s greatest champions. James Spence Authentication (JSA) has reviewed the signature of Arnold Palmer and their certificate of authenticity comes with this lot.
