Signed photographs of Tom Morris Sr. are rare and highly sought. This J. Rogers of St. Mary’s Studio, St. Andes example (which has been reprinted in several books and posters since) has been signed “Tom Morris 1901”. He signed it on the reverse as well.
Any signed letter by Old Tom is exceptionally rare. In fact, reports state that only a single letter has been discovered that is both fully written and signed by Tom. Due to his illiteracy, the few signed examples have the content written by his son or daughter to which Tom added his signature. This letter was written for the daughter of a wealthy American businessman as they visited the UK and St Andrews in 1903.
