1958 Letter To Bobby Jones From Architect George W. Cobb w/ANGC Course Content
Addressed to Robert T. Jones Jr., Augusta National Golf Club Co-founder, George Cobb details changes that Jones wanted to emphasize on the course the same year (December 17, 1958) that he designed the Par 3 Course. "You (Jones) mentioned that you might like to bring out changes that have taken place over the years...If we duplicate this shot at this time it will show the tree growth, removal of traps on No.14 and No. 16, replacement of trap on No. 8 and would also show work done on No. 2 and No. 7 green." This letter was typed and ballpoint pen signed by George W. Cobb on his personal letterhead to Jones only months after he designed the Par 3 Course on Augusta National Golf Club grounds. Significant content from the course designer to the great Bobby Jones is found in this missive.
