During one of my many researches I stumbled upon an auction site that somehow has access to some of the more interesting sports items that come up for auction -
This just came through my email -
1934 First Masters Tournament Official Program. Recently discovered treasure joins approximately a dozen known surviving examples to rank among the most sought after golf publications in the collecting hobby. Links legend Bobby Jones' vision that was born this year would come to be the most prestigious tournament in the sport, the Green Jacket its most coveted prize. Cultured collectors are aware that despite the popularity and intrigue of this annual event, official programs were only offered the first two years of the tournament's existence. The provided specimen survives in remarkably strong condition, with moderate cover wear, including splitting at the spine, the only issues worthy of note. It must be stressed that the covers remain firmly affixed to the staples. The interior pages bear not a crease, tear or stain to mention. With examples of Masters programs surfacing at public auction once every few years, advanced collectors are advised to bid aggressively, as the wait between opportunities for ownership are long indeed.
