George Burns Previous 1987 Andy Williams Open Tournament Winner Gifted T-Line VI by PGA Model Putter
Each Year John Hamilton of the Newport Sports Museum and his supporters would reach out to the champion and request a club or putter used to win the tournament. This was not used to win the tournament, and was gifted years later. John’s Newport Sports Museum opened in 1995 and remained open to 2014 when it shut its doors. John’s collecting started in 1953 and he had many supporters that helped get him access to winning players and teams to amass his great collection. Thru his connections he was able to obtain an autographed baseball from each years World Series winning team. John was a huge golf fan and had purchased a set of Dwight Eisenhower’s clubs directly from Mamie, Dwight’s wife. Items from the Newport Sports Museum are always of the utmost authenticity and were normally obtained directly from the player or team by John or his large group of supporters in the world of sports.
