Rancho hosted the L.A. Open 18 times between 1956 and 1983. Rancho also hosted the Los Angeles City Championship, USGA, LPGA, Senior PGA, SCGA & PLGA. Arnold Palmer won all three of his L.A. Opens at Rancho." Jack Nicklaus "First Pro Debut" photos have been extremely rare and significantly more expensive as a Type 1. This 1962 Type III period photo provides a more affordable option and is priced accordingly. It's also 7"X9" which is a good size. In recent years a 4"X6" and a 5"X7" of this portrait photo have sold. The item ships to the lower 48 states only.
