About us

This site is dedicate to historic tennis players and their rackets from 1880-1990

Our aim is to provide high quality images and interesting content in a friendly way

We are not aiming to be the largest, or to collect every racket, just some highlights

Dating and Pricing was mostly done through national and local newspapers.

We aim to weight and measure every racket…but it will take some time!

We acknowledge the contribution of the original photographers at the time which inspired us (ie we have not used those originals, but rather we asked AI midjourney / flux etc to make a similar copy).
