Author: PALMER, Arnold (1929-2016)
Title: Signed Postal Cover
Description: One of the greatest golfers of all time, whose talent and charisma helped make the sport television gold in the 1950s, earned his nickname "The King" by winning almost all of the major tournaments over the six-decade career. Signed Postal Cover, 6½" X 3½", cancelled in Youngstown, Pennsylvania on 10 September 1973. Near fine. Never addressed. This amusing postal cover (NOT a First Day Cover) was cancelled in his hometown (Youngstown, PA) on the golfer's birthday (September 10) and the "Old Faithful, Yellowstone" 8-cent postage stamp at upper right is a reference to the well-known nickname of Palmer's legendary favorite putter! Palmer signs boldly in black fineline near the center. With original transmittal envelope. Unique. .
