Gene Sarazen Signed Masters Logo Slazenger Golf Ball

Gene Sarazen was an American professional golfer, one of the world's top players in the 1920s and 1930s. He is one of five golfers to win all the current major championships in his career, the Career Grand Slam: U.S. Open in 1922, 1932, PGA Championship in 1922, 1923, 1933, British Open in 1932, and The Masters in 1935 - with help from his famous Double Eagle. The Squire signed this Masters Tournament logo golf ball, finishing his last name just above the logo. There is some clear adhesive residue on the bottom of the ball from mounting, please refer to pictures. Sourced from The Doug Sanders Museum Collection is this Gene Sarazen Signed Masters Logo Slazenger Golf Ball JSA ALOA, originally obtained through Sanders' connections and celebrity status as a staple in golf for over two decades. The 20-time PGA Tour winner Doug Sanders was picked as a member of the 1967 Ryder Cup Team and obtained the nickname "The Peacock of the Fairways" with his colorful wardrobe. With friends in high places, a typical pro-am tournament field Sanders took part in might have consisted of names such as George H.W. Bush, Neil Armstrong and Willie Nelson. A large number of items that Doug collected over his playing career and thereafter are on display at The Doug Sanders Museum. Sharing in the joy of collecting, the generated funds from this sale will help benefit the Doug Sanders Museum. A signed letter of provenance from the museum will accompany this item. James Spence Authentication (JSA) has reviewed the signature and their auction letter of authenticity will come with this lot.
