Julius Boros 1967 Memphis Open Original Press Photographs and Newspaper Clippings Archive
A collection of vintage black and white silver gelatin press photographs and related newspaper ephemera featuring World Golf Hall of Fame member Julius Boros. The archive documents Boros at the 1967 Memphis Open held at the Colonial Country Club. The collection consists of three original photographs and two newspaper clippings. The first photograph is an action shot of Boros mid-swing on the 10th tee, with a Wonder Bar ice cream concession stand and gallery in the background. The second photograph captures a victory moment with Boros tipping his cap to the crowd while wearing a white Lacoste polo shirt; a leaderboard in the background displays scores for Boros (-5), Casper (-2), and Goalby (-2). The third photograph is a candid portrait of a smiling Boros in a cardigan sweater with laughing spectators behind him. Ephemera includes an original newspaper clipping of the tee-shot image date-stamped JUN 1 1967, which identifies Boros as a former U.S. Open champion and mentions a 20,000 dollar first-place prize. A second clipping features an advertisement for Shoney's Big Boy as the 19th Hole for the Memphis Open. The reverse of the photographs contain extensive editorial notations in ink and grease pencil.
