Byron Nelson 18th victory record....

Item # 575128 ·
THE DETROIT FREE PRESS, Detroit, Michigan, August 5, 1945  This 36 page newspaper has a two column headline on the front page of the sport's section (inside): "Nelson Rallies to Beat Furgol in Canadian Open".

This tells of Byron Nelson's famous 18th win in 1945 which is still a single season record and considered by many as the most impressive record in golf history. This was also his 11th consecutive win as well.

Other news of the day throughout. Light browning, otherwise good.
