EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant print showcases the iconic Kro-Flite golf ball, a true masterpiece of golf equipment from 1922. Created by the renowned artist Spalding, this particular model became one of their most popular balls during that era. The innovation behind the Kro-Flite lies in its unique construction - a mesh surface introduced in 1920 and an intricate dimple pattern developed by William Taylor back in 1905. In this image, we witness the evolution of golf technology as it transitions from the traditional mesh design to a more refined dimpled cover. The recessed cover featured on this ball is notably thinner than its predecessor, adding to its aerodynamic properties and enhancing performance on the green. The vivid colors captured in this photograph bring life to an important piece of sporting history. As we delve into the early years of the twentieth century, we can appreciate how brands like Spalding revolutionized sports equipment with their relentless pursuit of excellence. Whether you're an avid golfer or simply intrigued by vintage artifacts, this striking image transports you back to a time when golf was rapidly evolving and becoming increasingly popular worldwide. Join us as we celebrate both artistry and athleticism through Sarah Fabian Baddiel's lens, capturing not only a brand's legacy but also an enduring symbol of passion for sport.
