１９８１年４月８日水曜日に行われたマスターズトーナメントの練習ラウンドのパー３コンテストで沢山の有名プロゴルファーにサインしてもらったマスターズのサンバイザーと練習ラウンドのチケットです。
主人が１３歳の頃、オーガスタで購入したサンバイザーにパー３コンテストの最後の９ホールのグリーの後ろでプレイを終えたばかりのプロゴルファーを待ち構えて頑張ってサインを集めた物です。
その年のマスターズチャンピオンのトム・ワトソンのサインもしてあります。
古い物なのでサンバイザーに生地の変色やしわが有りますがコンディションは良い方だと思います。
中古品で古い物なのでご理解ある方のみでお願いします。神経質な方は落札をご遠慮ください。
配送方法はゆうパック６０サイズです。
返品は一切受け付ける事は出来ません。どうぞよろしくお願い致します。
このサンバイザーは夫(アメリカ人)の持ち物なので以下本人からの説明:
One Autographed 1981 Masters Tournament Golf Visor!
When I was thirteen years old, my father and I went to the 1981 Masters Tournament Practice Round and the 1981 Masters Tournament Par-3 Contest at Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia on Wednesday, April 8th, 1981. My ticket number was 07984.
The 1981 Masters Tournament Practice Round was held from the morning to the early afternoon. While the golfers were playing their rounds, my father and I walked around the golf course with the other spectators and watched the golfers play. And, while the golfers were playing their rounds, most of them seemed very relaxed, and a lot of them talked, joked and laughed with their caddies, each other, and sometimes spectators too.
The 1981 Masters Tournament Par-3 Contest was held in the afternoon. As I hoped to get some of the golfers' autographs at the 1981 Masters Tournament Par-3 Contest, before the contest, my father and I went to one of the merchandise shops at Augusta National Golf Club and bought a new 1981 Masters Tournament golf visor for me to try to have the golfers sign. The 1981 Masters Tournament golf visor has a patch with a white map and a small red flag sewn onto the panel. While the golfers were playing their rounds, I stood behind the green on the ninth hole with some other spectators and watched the golfers play. When the golfers finished playing their rounds and left the green to walk to the clubhouse, I asked some of them to sign my new 1981 Masters Tournament golf visor.
Seventeen golfers, including 1981 Masters Tournament champion Tom Watson, kindly signed my new 1981 Masters Tournament golf visor. Some of the golfers who signed my new 1981 Masters Tournament golf visor, listed from left to right, were:
-bill (top)-twelve golfers total, including: Lanny Wadkins, Ed Sneed, Byron Nelson, Hale Irwin, Gene Sarazen, Tom Watson, Hubert Green, Johnny Miller, Arnold Palmer and Jerry Pate
-panel (front)-four golfers total: Ben Crenshaw, Andy Bean, Raymond Floyd and Fuzzy Zoeller
-panel (back)-one golfer total: Tommy Aaron
When I came home from the 1981 Masters Tournament Practice Round and the 1981 Masters Tournament Par-3 Contest, I put the autographed 1981 Masters Tournament golf visor in the closet in my room in our family's air-conditioned, smoke-free home, and I kept it there for several years. Later, I put the autographed 1981 Masters Tournament golf visor in a box in the attic in our family's home.
When I went on a trip to the US to visit my family in December 2019, I got the autographed 1981 Masters Tournament golf visor and brought it back to Kumamoto, Japan at the end of the trip, and I've kept it in a closet in my apartment in Kumamoto, Japan since then.
The ticket for the 1981 Masters Tournament Practice Round and the 1981 Masters Tournament Par-3 Contest and the autographed 1981 Masters Tournament golf visor are in very good condition with no defects and only minor discoloration due to age-the photos above show the details.
When I decided to sell the autographed 1981 Masters Tournament golf visor, as I bought the 1981 Masters Tournament golf visor new and obtained the autographs on it in person, and I understood that there was a possibility that the autographed 1981 Masters Tournament golf visor could get lost, stolen or tampered with if I sent it to the US to get a Certificate Of Authenticity (COA) or a letter of authenticity (LOA) for it, I decided not to get a Certificate Of Authenticity (COA) or a letter of authenticity (LOA) for the autographed 1981 Masters Tournament golf visor.
I'm an American, but I've lived and worked in Japan for several years. Please feel free to ask questions before bidding.
