Easily among the best Bobby Jones images we have ever handled is this original that was used to promote Bobby's upcoming series "How I Play Golf" by Vitaphone but was likely taken by Irving Lippman, the famous studio photographer who was known to have taken the still photos from the series. The image is a bold a clear example of Bobby in trouble using his "Calamity Jane" putter. The image quality is perfect and despite some edge chipping and handling wear, the photo is a beautiful example.
