| 2 color prints titled "Hole in One" & "Disgusted Caddie" from the "Classic Golf" print series by Norman Orr of Scotland. Prints at 9"x6½," inside 13¼"x10¾" frames. Character images are fashioned after the 1744 group of Edinburgh gentlemen who got together at Leith to form the first authentic Golf Club.

[c.1974]. * "Forgive me for what I'm about to do" color cartoon print, 10¾"x8¼", framed at 13"x10½". [c.1960's]. (Paper backing to rear with large tear & old tape stain, ¼" rub mark to upper portion of glass). * Golfing cartoon by Frank Reynolds, "You see, I'm a trifle gay! The shot really calls for something in between a No. 4 and a 3½ Iron." 7"x4¾," framed at 11¼"x9¼". [c.1930's]. (Paper backing to rear with a bit of tearing & slight paper loss, light soiling to exterior, print is fine). Together, 5 framed items. |
