Save for later

Is this the golden age for golf collectors? We're not really sure how to measure that, but if you do happen to have deep pockets and a penchant for golf memorabilia, the last few months have been a gold mine.

At a Los Angeles auction on Monday, the MacGregor Tommy Armour clubs Babe Didrikson Zaharias used before signing with Wilson in 1947 sold for $31,250. The set features a golf bag and all 14 clubs including -- gasp! -- a 1- and 2-iron.

What's next? Something from Hogan, perhaps? We'll keep a look out. In the meantime, here's a picture of the clubs:
