Beautifully done by author Frank Christian with Cal Brown these two 207 page coffee table books present the rich photo collection of his families work as official photographers for the Augusta National since the 1930's. Frank Christian, the third generation of family photographer, weaves black and white vintage photography of the early years of the Masters with his current works which bring to life the color and beauty which is the Augusta National in its full springtime bloom. In this 1996 work, Christian skillfully through written word and crystal clear photography covers chapters which include; The Setting, The Course, The Club and of course The Masters. An added bonus for collectors comes in the autograph of Mr. Christian to each of these treasured books. Both books with dust jackets intact remain in NrMT condition.
Due to storage constraints, any inquiries regarding condition, editions, markings, etc for book lots must be in by April 2nd, 2013. Thank you for your interest in this lot.
