Bobby Jones Signed "Swinging" Image with Personalization JSA ALOA
With excellent placement on a post-swing photograph is an early, high-grade black ink 'Robert T. Jones Jr.' signature. His flowing, full name penmanship is on display in this offering. Merely mentioning Bobby Jones had an impact on The Masters would be selling him extremely short. He was The Masters, from building Augusta National Golf Club the way he envisioned doing it to starting the "Invitation Tournament" in 1934. The first playing was only four years of course after his Grand Slam year of 1930 in which he won the US Open, US Amateur, Open Championship and British Amateur. Jones was captured here in a post-swing pose, clad in a fitted sweater and patented precise middle part in his hair. This sepia photo is professionally matted and framed without glass to visually absorb the texture of the signature and photograph. Along with his signature is an example of his handwriting, a kind personalization message to Lawton Davis. This truly stunning piece transcends golf collecting, categorizes more comfortably as a high end piece of sports memorabilia and a fine investment piece.
17 1/4" x 19." James Spence Authentication (JSA) has reviewed this signature and their auction letter of authenticity comes with this lot.
