Carnaby Threep's Golf Class, 1968 -1970, Sunday Times publication, original, strip cartoons, 52 pages, landscape format, 22 cms x 18 cms, contained in plastic sleeve, condition: as new.
Gary Player authored a series of golf lesson cartoons for syndication to newspapers. ''Carnaby Threep' is a parody of Player authored by the cartoonist of the Rand Daily Mail, Bob Connolly, under the pseudonym of 'Paterson'.
The business card of Sid Brews of ''Gary Player/ Sid Brews Golf Course Design Services'' is fixed to the inside front cover.
Sid Brews was South Africa's first golfer to play on the international stage. Before there was Gary Player, before there was Bobby Locke, there was Sid Brews. Brews became the first South African golfer to achieve international notice. He won more 30 tournaments in South Africa (mostly in the 1920s and '30s, but even into the 1950s), and also won in Europe and the United States.
In 1934, probably his finest year, he finished second in the British Open and won both the French Open and Dutch Open championships. He would retain both of those titles in 1935.
