Illustrated. 221 pages. Introduction by Bobby Jones. It has been postulated by several people close to Ralph Guldhal, that this book was the reason for Guldhal's disappearance from competitive golf, that writing it caused him to over-analyze every aspect of his swing, effectively paralyzing him. Ralph Guldahl was a star player in the late 1930s. Western Open Champion three year running 1936-1938, Masters winner in 1939 (after being second in '37 & '38), and U. S. Open victories 1937 and 1938. After 16 PGA Tour victories, in 1940, according to Paul Runyan, "his skills disappeared like a car hurtling off a cliff." This production by the Cine-Sports Company is the most ambitious and detailed flicker book in the Library of Golf. Rather than just one image, there are photos take from different angles all in the same flicker sequence. Bound in original flexible leatherette with gilt and red lettering in Fine collector condition. No signs of use or ownership. In scarce unclipped dust jacket showing only a slight touch of soiling; no edge chips, creases or tears, protected in Brodart cover. Size: Oblong 48mo - over 3" - 4" Tall.…
