US Golfers rush for Hearts

American collectors rush to buy limited edition 007 golf balls on-line.

News of the Penfold Heart™ relaunch has become something of an internet phenomenon. From the US to Germany, Argentina to Sweden, the reaction from James Bond fan clubs and collectors of golfing memorabilia has been unanimous: these golf balls can only appreciate in value.

Since Sean Connery's immortal line “Mine's the Penfold Heart!” the golf balls with the red heart logo appeal to image-conscious golfers, whether fans of Sean Connery, Roger Moore, Piers Brosnan or Daniel Craig as 007.  No wonder that 007's ball of choice is one of the must-have Bond collector's items after the latest Bond movie, Quantum of Solace.

To commemorate the anniversary of Ian Fleming's birth, UK-based Penfold Golf launched 500 dozen collector's sets of Penfold Hearts™ to celebrate the life of 007's creator.

Old Penfold golf balls are regularly snapped up at auctions of sporting memorabilia, so these commemoratively packaged golf balls for sale on line are being shipped worldwide.Each set comes in its own slipcase (pictued top left) along with a numbered card of authenticity.

Whether you want to recreate that famous Bond scene, or simply appreciate the set for its collector's value, join the stampede for a set!
