Golf - Bobby Jones/Shinnecock Country Club Cachet

Subscriber-Only Edition

Fred's Anecdotal Note

This hand-painted Collins Cover is very scarce and desirable collectable. It was only produced for subscribers with no extras available. My cachet shows the seaside Shinnecock Country Clubhouse, the first in the United States opened in 1892. Also depicted on this "enter" FDC is Bobby Jones - - considered by meny to be the greatest golfer of all time. He won more major championships than anyone else and his talent, modesty, self-confidence, and good looks made him an American idol. The Collins number for this Limited Edition is G2406 and it will prove to be "The Best of Issue" for this new golf stamp.
