c.1910 Set Of “Far And Sure” Golfing Resorts Advertising Bookmarks From The Glasgow& South Western Railway
These four bookmarks were issued by the Glasgow& South Western Railway to advertise their routes to Glasgow and the surrounding area and the related golf courses.
Each of the circa 1910 bookmarks (6 ¼ x 2 ¼ ) feature a prominent golfer of the day, garnering expected interest from pre-WWI golf card collectors with an emphasis on scarcity. They include E.B.H. Blackwell, Tom Fernie, H. E. Taylor, and Open Championship winner James Braid.
The fronts of the bookmark have an action golfing photo of each of the golfers. The rear of each bookmark contains detailed biographical information on the golfer.
Extremely scarce, unique and most desirable originals and almost impossible to find as a set.
