Six (6) US Presidents Signed Commemorative Full Size USA Golf Bag
While we don't currently have the Secret Service stationed around this golf bag, it might not be a bad idea. Six gentlemen that were, and one that still is, under a watchful eye signed this custom United States Presidents patriotic red, white and blue custom crafted golf bag for their friend Doug Sanders. While the penmanship ask wasn't an invitation to his 'Doug Sanders Celebrity Golf Tournament' in which POTUS's would hit balls at during the late '80's, each Bill Clinton, George Bush, Ronald Reagan, Jimmy Carter, Gerald Ford and even Richard Nixon obliged below their embroidered name on the broadside zippered pocket. With the same side and small pocket design as the Miller 1989 Ryder Cup at The Belfry commemorative issued bag, stars and strips are both tastefully worked in and 'United States' is embroidered in white stitching up either side. This bag unquestionably sitting comfortably in an elevated level of both scarcity and in turn value after being a display fixture at The Doug Sanders Museum. The correlation between United States Presidency and the game of golf is a strong one. The strongest: signer George Herbert Walker Bush was the 41st President of the United States and second son of Senator Prescott Bush, who served in several high-ranking offices including the President of the United States Golf Association (USGA). The apple didn't fall far from the tree, as the avid golfer George H. W. Bush had the putting green reinstalled at the White House after signer President Nixon had it removed. Impress friends, family or yourself with this acquisition. A signed letter of provenance from the Doug Sanders Museum comes with this lot.
