Ca. 1972 Jack Nicklaus Tournament Used Golf Bag
<B>Circa 1972 Jack Nicklaus Tournament Used Golf Bag.</B></I> Spectacular provenance elevates this remarkable offering to a level that few Nicklaus artifacts could match. A December 8, 2003 signed letter on the Golden Bear's letterhead reads, "Dear Marc: It has been a long time since our paths have crossed, but I am glad to hear from your mother that you are doing well. Thirty-one years ago, when you were celebrating your 21st birthday, I gave you one of my used golf bags. It was probably one that I had used on the Tour that year, which would have been 1972, but I can't pin it down to specific tournaments. In any case, I hope you've enjoyed it all these years and will continue to keep it in your collection, Good golfing, signed Jack." The bag in question exhibits marvelous use from one of the game's top names, which is emblazoned above the large "MacGregor" logo on the side opposite the strap. Nicklaus' name is repeated in bold gold lettering upon the base of the bag as well. A giant and perfectly rendered black sharpie signature from Nicklaus futher attests to the important artifact's legitimacy. And, remember, Nicklaus' own recollection that the bag was likely used on the 1972 tour would correspond with victories at that season's Masters and U.S. Open, and a career-best seven tour wins in total, providing the finest vintage imaginable. <I>LOA from PSA/DNA (autograph).
