What's on ebay? 1966 Golf World
"4-8-1966 Golf World: DOUG SANDERS Wins GREENSBORO OPEN
Item number: 310136331035
Here is the April 8, 1966 Golf World with a great cover photo of Doug Sanders. Mr. Sanders had just won the Greater Greensboro Open at Sedgefield CC (defeating Tom Weiskopf in a play-off) and this issue has a fine account of the event. The 30-page magazine also has reports on the LPGA Venice Open (where the great Mickey Wright won by 7-shots), the Coral Gables-University of Miami Invitational (where Bob Murphy won individual honors in helping lead the University of Florida to the team title), an article on Lost Tree Village, a piece with comments critical of the invitation process at The Masters, plus much more. This copy shows signs of general age wear but is an attractive example of this 43-year old periodical, rare in its lack of an address label."
