c.1995 Tiger Woods at Stanford Stephen Elias Original Photograph - Authentic PSA TYPE 1 Photo
Photographer Stephen Elias signed and hand notated the verso of this Type I photo of Tiger Woods 'Stephen Elias - National Golfer - 94-ASU-Kasten' on the verso of the Kodak Olympic Rings Royal photo paper. Each of these elements is a value driver and factors when even the most discerning Tiger collectors are considering the run at a lot acquisition. Wearing his Stanford team uniform, this 8x10 photo captures the phenom amateur Tiger Woods during a collegiate tournament moments after he picked his ball out of the hole. A limited media presence was on hand for NCAA golf tournaments, as opposed to Woods' Amateur victories, yielding far less original photos such as this 'Kodak' paper example (note the Olympic rings design presumably for the 1996 Atlanta playing pattern on verso). White shirt and black pants, matching his teammate just out of the frame in the foreground off to the right, Tiger Woods would win the individual NCAA Championship title to go along with the already decorated golfer's 1991-1993 US Junior Amateur and 1994 & 1995 US Amateur titles (two months removed from his third consecutive US Amateur title. The collegiate superstar sports Stanford's logo on his PING shirt (ASU and Karsten Solheim connection) and the red 'S' on the folded bag towel. PSA Type I photos are often the single best visual, this pre-rookie Tiger Woods shot by the photographer Stephen Alias who was just feet away taking the NCAA tournament in checking all the boxes. Both collectors and investors have latched on to this category over the last few years and this is an example of why. PSA encapsulated for valuation (Type I), presentation and preservation. 8" x 10"
