If the greatest golfer of ‘em all seems like a dashing leading man in this awesome sepia-toned glossy, it’s understandable since the shot was taken by famous Hollywood photographer Elmer Fryer. In fact, the picture came about because Jones at the time was making a series of short subject movies for Warner Brothers on “How I Play Golf.” The original 8 x 10” is EX-MT. Back has the stamping “Personality Portrait by Elmer Fryer, Warner Bros. and First National”, as well as the stamping of Culver Pictures.
