Golf Cards
 

Been into the older stuff lately. Always looking for golf cards or autos.

You need a Jones to go with those Hagens. Funny, I have Jones but no Hagen since I sold mine. It's been harder to replace than I thought.

Ogdens Golf Cards
 

Here are my Ogdens Golfer cards, 51 different in total.
I dont know exactly how many are in the multiple photographic series, 51 will do for now, others may have the exact answer.
Spent many years getting these together.
Alot of upgrades along the way, they are all difficult in very good condition.

For some trivia, the golf course where these were taken is the
Royal Liverpool Golf Course ''Hoylake''.
All these players were present at the one time in 1897, from memory, as its been quite some time since researched them.

Here is a couple of Bobby's , and a few Copes Golfers.

Extremely difficult to find, and 3 of my favorite cards in my collection.

I always forget there's a golf section - awesome cards, Searching.

Hello John, thanks for the kind words about the cards.
With Golf, there are some great postcards to collect.

Have always wondered if the Vardon signature was legit, maybe PSA/DNA might be an avenue to get it checked.
Hoping others will post their Golfer cards, postcards for all to see.

Great cards! It's good to see cards other than the big three. Does anyone collect any of the modern cards, Woods etc.

Golf cards Golf putters whatever "The Billy Baroo"

Just one of each.

You learn something every day
 

Honestly I don't know the difference between my cleek and a Billy Baroo .

But if you can find my niblick and mashie, you may know the difference.


Hint: My cleek is toward the bottom, but I could be wrong.

Judge Smails putter "The Old Billy Baroo"

Jack Nicklaus fresh from the Halloween Fun Packs early 1980's, the only one I opened from the bunch

My count is 55 including the 3 posted above from the Ogdens ''Sportsmen & Cricketers'' set. Compounding the challenge is multiple variations of the same card, such as this Hilton #478 from the Guinea Gold Numbered Cards set - all three are the same card but the picture is cropped differently for each.

Ray

Is golf photo collecting a thing? I picked up a really nice vintage snapshot of Byron Nelson and Sam Snead playing a round. I will scan and post it tomorrow.

Hello Ray, nice bunch of Ogdens Harold Hilton cards !!
Some more golfer cards.

Been looking for a Jones for a while! Let me know if you find an extra! Here are a few for of my golf things.

And a few more
 

...

Here are a couple of my Vardon's up close. One of these is PSA and one is JSA both from major auctions. I think yours looks good!

He may not have a card, but he deserves to be here.

Old Tom Morris on the Himalayas in 1892. Better than Rory for 25 years in The Open, but after 1885 he was lackluster.
