Each page is a still image, but when the pages are flicked through at speed they show golf legend Bobby Jones’ swing in motion.

The three books, priced £450, are among the items on sales at the exhibition Champions, Hookers & Dew Sweepers, a selling show of golf art and memorabilia staged by dealers Manfred Schotten and Nick Potter.

It takes place at Schotten’s Burford showrooms and runs until August 11.

Jones (1902-71) was a US amateur golfer who earned his living as a lawyer but dominated competitions from 1923-30 and won the ‘Grand Slam’ – all four major tournaments – in 1930. He also helped found The Masters tournament at the Augusta National Golf Club.
