Antique Golf Collectibles

There are lots of books on golf collectibles out there. However, Antique Golf Collectibles newly released from Collector Books is one of the best organized and delivered of them all. The wide coverage includes clubs, balls, ceramics, metal wares, and all sorts of (paper) ephemera. "Golf is older than soccer, tennis, and the modern Olympics," notes author Pete Georgiady. "It is still a relatively quite pastime. It's not overcrowded and the items are not overpriced."

Tiger Woods is no stranger to the popular age-old hobby of golf. He's become an American icon, the world's top golfer, and the only golfer ever to hold all four major tournament titles at one time. This third edition of the best book on golf collectibles available is updated and greatly expanded, devoting an entire chapter to this golfing legend.

Highly respected golf collector and publisher, Chuck Furjanic, has combined his knowledge with articles from contributing experts to make this the most reliable collector's reference today, including chapters on autographs, antique clubs and balls, signature golf balls, collecting golf books, artwork, ceramics, medals and trophies, as well as trading cards and other collectibles. Prices have been updated and this third edition includes nearly 500 new photographs, featuring 16 more pages of color. Manufacturer and product histories make this an enjoyable read, as well as a must-have price guide.
