Wooden structure with two compartments accessed through opening at top front, through which balls, either black (no) or white (yes) could be dropped, with locking drawers at bottom to be pulled out for counting. “No” and “Yes” are painted at the appropriate sides of the opening at top, and on the drawers; “D G C” is lettered on the front, with crossed golf clubs. 15” high by 11” wide by 6” deep. Britain?: No date Ballot box for a golf club, in which votes for membership were cast, with those rejected being “blackballed.” Likely late 19th or early 20th century, the club is unknown. A small key is present, but the locking mechanisms do not work - perhaps a little WD40? An attractive golf antique. Some rubbing and other minor wear, very good. (300/500)

The 2 page letter written to Mrs. Barnes in New Rochelle, N.Y. reflects on a conversation Mrs. Barnes had with Ryder at the Open, talking about Barnes’ little daughter at home and Ryder now has bought the girl a silver cup as a present, “in my opinion, a very beautiful thing. It is a model of the finest form of old English tankard and is very graceful, and I am quite sure yourself and Mr. Barnes and your little girl, when she grows up will appreciate it. I have had put upon the cup a suitable inscription recording that the cup was presented to your little girl by me and that it was to remind her that her father won the British Open Championship in 1925.” He continues narrating that he sent the cup and if he had a daughter, he would allow her to drink from the cup annually, on the date of the Open. “You will be pleased to hear that Mr. Barnes left a most excellent impression behind him in England. He is very much admired and esteemed as a man, quite apart from his being a great golfer. Will you kindly inform Mr. Barnes that I have not been able to arrange an International Match between Professionals of Britain and America at present but when he is over here playing for , it is quite possible that we shall arrange a match or two at Verulam Links. The finest player we have in England is Mr. Abe Mitchell and in order to win back the open championship I have engaged him as my private professional, his main duties being to practice and train.” Additional good content and boldly signed at the close. Both items are in fine condition, save a couple of paper clip stains on the letter and the usual folds for mailing. (700/1000)

39. (Barnes, Jim) Photograph album with thirteen real photograph postcards of Jim Barnes playing the St. Enodoc Golf Club course. 13 black and white real photograph postcards, loosely mounted in photo corners on leaves within a leather photograph album 13.520.5 cm. (5¼x8”). Also included is a 21.5x16.5 cm. (8½x6½”) original photograph duplicating an image in the album showing a group of men walking up a path on the course, and one man is identified in ink as . [c.1915?] The postcards show Jim Barnes playing the St. Enodoc Golf Club course with a group in Cornwall, England, ca. 1915? There is an ink inscription on the last page “To remind Mr. Jim Barnes of St. Enodoc, D.B. James”. We do not know whether this is a tournament, but each image shows a fairly large group of people following the player around the course. Further study is needed to identify other individuals in the photographs. The photographs of play on the course are sharp, clear and of good contrast. One image shows a few white sheep on the course, while all the others are of play, with beautiful vistas. Since Barnes was born in Cornwall, this could possibly have been his home course.

One image shows a few white sheep on the course, while all the others are of play, with beautiful vistas. Since Barnes was born in Cornwall, this could possibly have been his home course.

[c.1910?] Collection of original photographs of Jim Barnes and related images, including a young Jim Barnes showing his in various positions and 2 photographs of him playing on a course. The album begins with 2 photographs of an unidentified golf club house. Neat little album that might have been a precursor to his published book showing stroke positions. With some research on where he played as a young man, the course could probably be identified. No date, but Barnes looks in his early twenties at the time. With tears to the album’s paper spine; photographs are fine. (200/300) Page 10 PIETZCKER PHOTOGRAPHS 41. (Barnes, Jim - Pietzcker) Photograph of Jim Barnes. 27x22 cm. (11x8½”) sepia tone outdoor photograph on matte finish paper. Signed by Pietzcker in the lower right in pencil, “Pietzcker, St. Louis,” and bears the purple ink stamp of Pietzcker, St. Louis on the reverse. St. Louis: [c.1925] The photograph shows Jim Barnes in a suit, speaking with an older unidentified gentleman wearing a golf cap. There is speculation that the man may be George Pietzcker himself, although that seems doubtful as the photograph is signed by him. Further research is needed to confirm the identity of the man, but the large size and quality of the image would indicate it to be a person of some import. Provenance: The Barnes Family Archive. Fine condition. (500/800)

He came down to see me from faraway Lincoln and I was pleased to find him in such good shape. It was a visit which pleased me immensely and we had a good “chin wag” together. I had not seen Freddie since 1921 when we met at Gleneagles in the first unofficial golf match between America & England. I was 2 up & 3 to play and missing a short putt at the 16th to become Dormy he went on to beat me at the last hole” He goes on to speak of a complimentary dinner given McLeod at the Columbia C.C. “I am too, glad that the came our way this year.

First Edition, Presentation Edition. Edinburgh: “Printed for Private Circulation”, 1867 Presentation edition inscribed and signed by Robert Clark on verso of the front free endpaper, “Champion Prize awarded of the Grand Golf Tournament over Gullane Links on April 14th, 1874 to G.P. Chalmers, R.S.A...” below that, signed by the editor, “R[obert] Clark, Chairman, F.S.A. Scot.” It is also signed by 12 golfers (among them are members of the Royal Scottish Academy) who participated in the tournament, most of whom were original members of The Gullane Golfers, formed in 1868. “The earliest members were well-known citizens of Edinburgh...it may be noted that the first winner of the Challenge Trophy of the club was Mr. G. Paul Chalmers [to whom this volume is inscribed], whose sad death in Feb. 1878 was deplored by the whole community.” -Kerr, The Golf Book of East Lothian, pp. 202. Although Kerr does not state the year of that golf tournament, it may be that this volume was presented along with the trophy awarded to Chalmers. It is a unique copy signed by 12 golfers, autographs include: James Drummond, Geo[rge] Waterston, Cha[rle]s Morrison, William Paxton, David Douglas, R[obert] Herdman, W. Brodie, Hugh Cameron, Edwin Millidge, plus three others whose signatures are difficult to decipher. Signed by William Paxton who was the driving force behind the formation and continuation of The Gullane Golfers or, “Our Club,” as it was known for many years. The material for the book was collected by members of the Edinburgh Burgess Golfing Society and printed for private circulation among the members. According to Murdoch, “The book is of the greatest importance because it brought attention to some of the earlier poems which, Lot 127 but for their appearance here, might not have survived.” The poems to which Murdoch is referring are Mathison’s “The Goff,” Carnegie’s “Golfiana,” a new version of “The Golfer’s Garland,” some verses by James Ballantine, and the first appearance of “The Nine Holes of St. Andrews.” The sonnets were written by 3 men: Robert Chambers, his son, Robert, Jr. (winner of the first open Amateur Tournament of 1858 and author of “A Few Rambling Remarks on Golf ”), and Patric Proctor Alexander (a member of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club). Only the third Presentation Edition offered at PBA Galleries, this is the first copy offered that is signed by several notable Edinburgh golfers, members of the Royal Scottish Academy, and early members of The Gullane Golfers. –Kerr, The Golf Book of East Lothian, pp. 202-203.

Edinburgh: Printed by James Ballantyne & Co., 1824 With a presentation inscription to an individual, whose name has been subsequently removed/ erased from the top of the front wrapper and signed in period ink, “from an old Member.” The first prose book solely devoted to golf. Contains over fifty pages of quite substantial information, including: 11 pages of rules, a list of members of The Thistle, hole lengths (at the time it was only a five hole course), and the rest (a majority) being a history of the game of golf. The first book devoted to golf, The Goff by Thomas Mathison (1743), a short 22 page mock epic poem, is the only title pre-dating this, Cundell’s Thistle Golf Club rule-book. Considered one of only six books of printed rules published prior to 1830; Cundell’s little gem is described in Clapcott’s Rules of the Ten Oldest Golf Clubs, where he asserts that “these rules help to show what members of newly instituted clubs, unfettered by past codes, considered to be the accepted laws of the game.” Donovan & Murdoch state: “We know now that it [Rules of the Thistle Golf Club] is a very important contribution to the literature of golf and perhaps of more importance than the earlier poetry [ie. The Goff].” Donovan & Jerris also write: “The first publication to attempt a history of the game…A copy of Cundell’s manuscript was reviewed by Sir Walter Scott prior to publication, who found any additions or revisions to the text unnecessary [or nothing to add or change due to it’s excellence] (ref. Scott’s letter of June 9, 1824, as reprinted in an 1896 issue of Lot 162 Badminton Magazine). The historical section was reprinted in its entirety in 1875 in Robert Clark’s Golf: A Royal and Ancient Game” – D&J C29350; D&M 210.

The chapter on golf remains, like the other editions, a rich source of information on the history of golf at St. Andrews, and provides a description of the manufacture of the feathery golf ball, the production of which is described as “unhealthy,” and while at one time they applied the instrument that stuffed the feathers into the ball with their breast, now they apply it with their shoulder.

But if in the backward or in the downward swing any grass, bent, whin or other growing substance, or the side of a bunker or wall, paling or other immovable obstacle, be touched, no penalty shall be incurred.” Then, “Ruling of the U.S.G.A. Penalty for breach of this rule: In Match Play, loss of the hole. In Medal Play, for moving anything, disqualification; for touching anything, loss of one stroke. The intent of this ruling is to prevent the player from altering or improving the lie of the ball. The club shall not be soled, nor the surface of the ground be touched within a radius of a club length from the ball, except that the player may place his feet firmly on the ground for the purpose of addressing the ball; but nothing herein shall be construed as allowing a player to test in any manner the consistency of the sand or soil in any part of the hazard, under penalty of disqualification. When a ball lies on turf in a hazard or surround by a hazard, it shall be considered as being on the fair green, i.e., the club may be soled.” Edge wear to wrappers, some small spots of soiling; very good.

ALL SALES HELD BY PBA GALLERIES ARE CONDUCTED PURSUANT TO SECTION 2328 OF THE COMMERCIAL CODE AND SECTION 535 OF THE PENAL CODE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA CONSIGNING BOOKS TO PBA GALLERIES The first step in consigning to PBA is to contact the Galleries, either by phone, fax, email or letter. It can then be determined whether the item or items under consideration would do well at auction. Following this, arrangements can be made for the delivery of the material to PBA. In the case of large consignments or libraries, a member of the staff may be able to view the books on location, and make arrangements for its transportation to PBA Galleries. Because of the costs involved, PBA discourages consignments with a total value of less than $1500. The frequency of auctions, and variety of subject matter, allows PBA Galleries to ensure quick turn-around time for items consigned. Books can appear at auction as quickly as 30 days and generally not more than 90 days following consignment. Commissions vary between 10% and 15%, depending on the selling price of an item.These commissions encompass all related costs including insurance, storage, cataloguing, illustrations, etc., except shipping. Payment is sent within 20 banking days of an auction.
