A unique addition to golf literature, A Small Display of Golf Courses is an odyssey to golf courses appearing on the the smallest of art forms, the postage stamp.
From over a thousand golf stamps from around the world, it reproduces 35 depicting actual golf holes that are then combined into an electic golf course. Another 17 depict a philatelic Golf Hall of Fame, from Presidents, to crooners, to cartoon characters caught in the act of golfing.
It is more than a reproduction of stamps, because in addition to its glue, there is a story behind every one. The countries selected demonstrate that the sun never sets on golf.
Cost: $24.95
What They’re Saying About the Book
For a golfer and stamp collector, this book is absolutely enchanting.
John Capers, Member, International Philatelic Golf Society
… the gift book for the golfer who has everything.
James W. Finegan, author Where Golf is Great
This charming book combines two of life’s great pasttimes into one marvelous golf journey that made me think of Franklin D. Roosevelt, a serious stamp collector and, before stricken with polio, an ardent golfer — how he would have loved this book, as I know you will, too.
Jack Whitaker, Member, Golf Hall of Fame, and Host, Shell’s Wonderful World of Golf
