"Great Players Love Great Collections!" - from the inner front jacket flap. "This is a true treasure trove of rare and visually captivating golf collectibles, many of which are housed in private collections and rarely seen by the public, and others that are part of the rich heritage of private golf club and museum collections. Explore golf's visual history through stunning early paintings, turn-of-the-century postcards, vintage posters, decorative ceramics, signed photographs of the game's legendary champions, and much more. I loved it, especially the chance to revisit the Royal Sydney and Royal Melbourne Golf Club collections!" - Ian Baker Finch. "I enjoyed the spectacular photography and informative historical background provided along with each of the images. Anyone interested on the history of golf or a fan of the game will find this a compelling read. Even the most sophisticated golfers will learn new information, while the images and design will entertain the novice. The book layout is such that a casual reader can pick it up, chose an interesting subject, enjoyably peruse it and then move on. This book is entertaining, delightful, and informative - I hope you enjoy it as much as I did." - Mark Wiebe.…

Store description

Vero Beach Books is an antiquarian bookseller with a constantly updated inventory of rare out-of-print books, signed books, children's books, plus a large inventory of ephemeral items such as major U.S. city newspapers going back 100 years and more, golden and silver age fine condition comic books (soon to be added), and many other ephemeral items as well as much more recent popular volumes. We have been in business for 25 years, originally known as Emerson Books (named after one of our owner's favorite authors, to wit, Ralph Waldo Emerson) located back then in Westport, Connecticut. That said, we are here to serve you, to offer you fine quality items that are conservatively described so that you will always be pleasantly surprised and delighted with your purchase. Twenty-five years in the bookselling business has borne out our stellar service oriented reputation; the only difference is that now we are located in the almost always sunny and warm climate of Vero Beach, Florida. Again, we are here to serve you and, as was the case when we were previously known on ABEBooks.com as Emerson Books, we will continue to offer our very popular 100% free search service for those hard to find books rare and out of print books. Oftentimes we are also able to obtain these rare finds at very good discounts to our customers' so it is always worth contacting us in such cases!
