Arnold Palmer Signed Callaway Country Club of Detroit Logo Golf Ball - '54 US Amateur Win
Arnold Palmer carefully applied his black sharpie signature just above the Country Club of Detroit logo, home to his 1954 US Amateur victory. No less an authority then Jack Nicklaus calls the United States Golf Association's Amateur Championship a "Major." Whether it is or not is open to debate. What is known is that the 1954 US Amateur had a fellow who was selling paint in Cleveland (Arnold Palmer) put his golf game to test over a week of gritty match play, and crowned him champion by virtue of a 1-up win in the 36 hole finals match. That weeks event was contested at The Country Club of Detroit, and it is what Mr. Palmer considers the turning point of his career. James Spence Authentication (JSA) has reviewed this signature and their auction letter of authentication comes with this lot.
