In what started by my interest in the early history of Cobb's Creek golf course resulted in having thousands of early golf articles of mostly Philly area golf courses.  Many of these were gathered the old-fashioned way:  from microfilm.

Many are familiar with the Bausch Collection of golf course photos at MyPhillyGolf, and just yesterday a new addition was added to the site known as the Bausch Archives.  It is here where I'm slowly but surely putting up my research findings from the last 12 years.

Don't blame me if you spend way too many hours reading these articles.   ;)

The latest update to the Bausch Archives includes golf articles from Percy Sanderson (under the pen name Sandy McNiblick) in the 1916-1917 Philadelphia Evening Public Ledger.  Some juicy stuff within those many articles.


As always, enjoy!

Over the last many months I've slowly but surely compiled all the golf articles from the 1914-1916 Philadelphia Evening Public Ledger newspaper. I've put them in chronological order.

Yes, plenty of noise there but some good ones as well.

Like this one that talks about the original Roxborough CC, a 9-hole course designed by Donald Ross (all of the pics below are clickable to obtain larger size):

One of a nice series on local golfers, this on Francis Warner:

It's my pleasure to be an intermediary with Joe and some of the local supers. I cannot express my gratitude to Joe, for the work that he has done. I look forward to more.

My holiday wish would be to put Joe onto one of the great mysteries of east-of-Buffalo golf course architecture. Kevin Lynch (aka The Scrambler) had uncovered a bit about Seth Raynor being retained to build a course out along Ellicott Creek, near Bowmansville. Ellicott Creek is the water course that flows alongside Park Country Club (Alison) to the west. Try as we might, we could not get any farther.

The truth is out there.
Coming in 2024
~Elmira Country Club
~Soaring Eagles
~Bonavista
~Indian Hills
~Maybe some more!!

I'm assuming Kevin has some written evidence (newspaper article?). Can you/he post it here and/or send it to me?
