24 pages. The World Amateur Team Championship was started with an idealistic notion: golf as a means to spread international goodwill in the post-war period. The inaugural tournament was in 1958 at St. Andrews and the 1960 tournament, the 2nd, was held at Merion and this program is from that competition. The winner of the tournament received the Eisenhower Trophy and President Eisenhower was very involved in the tournament and the winners at Merion got an invitation to the White House to receive the trophy. The US team won the competition, which was held among 126 players from 32 countries. This was an amateur competition and the US team included reigning US Amateur champion Deane Beman as well as a young Jack Nicklaus, who was still a student at Ohio State. Nicklaus played the best among all 126 competitors shooting 66-67-68-68, an impressive feat. The program contains a fold-out map in the rear of Merion as well as an insert listing all the teams with pictures. The program contains articles written by Bobby Jones, Bernard Darwin and Herbert Warren Wind, among others. Along with the 24 page program and the 22 page insert are two additional items: A list of the delegates, and contestants along with the name of the hotel they are staying at or the name of the Merion member that is hosting them in their home (16 pages) and a guidebook and list of activities for participants (10 pages). A rare collection of items. We specialize in golf books.…
