1950s Women's Golf Hall of Famers in Bobby Jones Golf Club Tournament photograph archive includes 22 images, with many signed. All original double-weight silver gelatin photos originate from a tournament in the 1950s in Florida, and are part of the Catoe Studios archive find in this auction, which includes a Babe Didrikson signed photograph from this event. Catoe Studios was owned by former Mayor of Webb, Mississippi, Earl Van Dorn Catoe Jr, and a few have the Catoe Studio stamp on back.

All were signed around the time period of the tournament, roughly half measure 7x5" and half 8x10", with a few smaller. Many have staples in all four corners from previously being preserved in an album.
