Description

Commercialization finds the Ryder Cup

Original vintage program from the 1965 Ryder Cup matches at the Royal Birkdale Golf Club, 8.5 x 11, 160 pages. Signed inside in blue ballpoint by ten participants, each signing next to their image and biography. Signers are: Byron Nelson, Julius Boros, Tommy Jacobs, Arnold Pamer, Tony Lema, Dave Marr, Harry Weetman, Peter Butler, J[immy] Hitchcock, and Lionel Platts. In very good condition, with soiling, wear and creasing to covers, as well as moderate overall handling wear. At the 1965 outing, an American team led by the likes of Nelson and Palmer defeated a British team featuring Hitchcock and Weetman by a score of 19½ to 12½ points. This souvenir program dates to a period that first introduced commercialization into the competition. Pre-certified Steve Grad/PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
