The Ryder Cup - A Signature History

The challenge for this project was to make sure the extra thick pages (close to 1/4") would open reasonably flat. Each page of signatures or artifacts were set in mat board with multiple openings, close to 500 in total, and taking over 30 hours on the mat cutter alone. The pages then had to be guarded and made up with cloth hinges, one on top of each other.

We then chose hand made marble paper endpapers, and the volumes were bound in full Chieftain goatskin, with recess panels for the front photographs, and volume one also had two 1927 coins inlayed, to be viewed from both sides. Gilt spines complete with a special Ryder Cup center tool from P & S Engraving.

This is a collection of signed artifacts by every player that ever played in the Ryder Cup from 1927 - 2012, a truly one of a kind collection.
