Presented here is one of the most sought after golf programs in existence - a 1930 British Amateur Program from Bobby Jones' victory at St Andrews en route to the Grand Slam.

As most collectors know, the most sought after items from Bobby Jones' Grand Slam in 1930 are the actual Programs from those tournaments. A small number of each still exist, but programs from the 1930 Open Championship at Hoylake and 1930 Amateur at St Andrews survive in numbers that are a fraction of their counterparts from the American tournaments.

Offered here is an actual program from the 1st leg of what would become Bobby Jones' Grand Slam year of 1930. This 90+ year old program is in very good condition. The cover is remarkably clean, staples are rusted, a few pages are loose. A very fine example.
