Pub sign based on a painting of the 'Great Triumvirate': (l. to r.) J. H. Taylor, James Braid and Harry Vardon. When I passed the Golf a few months later, I was taken aback to see that this historically evocative painting had been replaced with a modern black-and-white, logo-style golfer taking a swing. For the earliest references to golf being played on the Links, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruntsfield_Links#Golf
