Hi Golf Museum and followers 👋
We just posted a photo of 'famous golfers' at
Letchworth' (in 1926) over on our page at Museum at One Garden City... can anyone there identify any of them?
Half of the course at Letchworth was designed by Harry Vardon, who we definitely have heard of, but we're a bit stumped on who these chaps are (and indeed whether they were even famous or not!!)
