Google Adds Life Magazine Images

Google has added images from the Life Magazine archives, 97% of which has never been seen according to this article. If you are looking to kill a little time, here's the direct link to all images related to golf where I spotted some classic images, including many of the Hogan-Snead playoff at Riviera in 1950.

Another...only Hogan could make club selection compelling. I do believe that is a very bizarre lay-up on No. 10.

Here's another Hogan at Augusta. Look at that bunker edge...

Speaking of Augusta, here is a shot of the old 12th green much closer to MacKenzie's original boomerang, contoured surface that I've only seen one other good shot of. Look how much it's sloped toward the tee! Surface drainage was a beautiful thing Trent! Nice job taking the character right out of that green.

Here's Pine Valley's 6th hole back when it was really sandy and rugged.

And finally, check out this of Ike practicing golf at the White House:

I made the mistake of going back and doing more searching on the Google/Life Magazine link and found some killer Hogan shots. Here he is being grilled by scribblers after the round. Just like today!
