EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the legendary James Braid, a prominent Scottish golfer from the early 20th century. Taken around 1903, this image captures Braid's stoic expression as he poses against a brick wall backdrop. Sporting his signature moustache and donning traditional Scottish attire, including a cap and jacket, Braid exudes an air of confidence and determination. The cigarette card format adds to the charm of this vintage photograph, which was likely collected by avid golf enthusiasts during that era. It serves as a testament to Braid's immense popularity in Scotland and beyond. Braid's contribution to the sport cannot be overstated. As one of the most successful golfers of his time, he won five Open Championships between 1901 and 1910. His innovative approach to course design also left an indelible mark on golf architecture. This print transports us back in time to witness the greatness of James Braid firsthand. It encapsulates not only his physical appearance but also represents an era when golf was rapidly gaining popularity as a beloved sport in Scotland. As we admire this remarkable piece captured by unknown creator James Braid, we are reminded of the enduring legacy left behind by this iconic figure in both Scottish history and the world of golf.
