Original c. 1916 silver gelatin action photograph of Jim Hendry chipping out of trouble at the Fox Hills golf club during the Metropolitan Open which was essentially the first professional major championship! Despite some wear and a rip at the top, this is one of the earliest images of professional golf (PGA) that we have ever seen making it a special piece of history!
