A youthful Bobby Jones is captured on this original 5" x 7" photo. The youngster has that winning smile. The following appear on reverse: caption affixed, writing and Boston Herald Archives hologram. There is some paper loss on the bottom portion.
The original Boston Herald was founded in 1846 by a group of Boston printers jointly under the name of John A. French & Company. The paper was published as a single two-sided sheet, selling for one cent. This is an original photo, in many cases a Type 1 printed at the time of the event. File copies or type 2 photos are also found, and can be distinguished by the markings on the reverse.
