Baseball Hall of Famer Whitey Ford Golfing Alex J. Morrison Photo
Yanks ace Whitey Ford was the subject of photography for Alex Morrison, posing prior to an iron shot out of the controlled rough.

He was a 10-time All-Star and 6-time World Series champion. 8" x 10."
Esteemed golf instructor Alex Morrison was behind many impressive game's, likely none more than that of Henry Picard's. The lineage to the Golden Bear is simple and complex, as Picard then taught Jack Grout, who taught Jack Nicklaus. Morrison was behind all of it, and much more as his teachings were in numerous books and newspapers for the masses. His reach in the golf industry went further, as Morrison became an acclaimed photographer and writer, each of which could have been his sole profession. Here is an original Morrison photo, with the influential figure the eye behind the camera that took it.
