1939 Photograph of golf superstar Horton Smith as he is among the leaders at the US Open and is seen crossing his fingers for luck in the final round. He did not end up being among the top contenders but it mattered little as he is still ranked among the greatest early professional golfers of all time. Crystal clear and bold, this is an original from the International News and stamped on the back with a full paper caption.
