1900ref. 200841900. Women's tennis archive early 1900s to late 1930s documents female athletic participation across childhood portraiture illustrated popular culture press coverage and competitive play. The group is important for the history of women's sports because it records how women and girls were pictured entering a game that moved from elite recreation into organized competition during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The official history of Wimbledon notes that the Championships added Ladies' Singles in 1884 establishing one of the most visible formal venues for women's tennis and this archive preserves the visual culture that developed in the decades after that institutional change. The archive consists of ten visual items dated from the early 1900s to the late 1930s: three silver gelatin photographs one albumen cabinet card five brightly illustrated postcards and one real photo postcard with sizes ranging from approximately 1.75 x 2.75 inches to 6.5 x 8.5 inches. The largest press photograph dated 1933 shows Helen Jacobs in action and identifies her in the attached release as America's "outstanding woman athlete." Another press image shows four female champions standing side by side before a packed Wimbledon stadium with a newspaper article taped to the verso noting their scores. The earliest image an albumen cabinet card shows a little girl holding a small tennis racket while one illustrated postcard presents a co-ed trio on a tennis court in the early twentieth century. The remaining postcards and photographs extend the archive's range from playful and decorative representations of tennis to more direct evidence of women's organized competition. Half of the postcards bear handwritten inscriptions on the verso and two of the three press photographs retain original article clippings taped to the back. Taken together the group shows the changing public image of women's tennis from carefully posed early depictions shaped by restrictive dress codes to 1930s press photography centered on speed competition and celebrity. The official Wimbledon history also notes that equal prize money for men and women was not adopted there until 2007 a reminder that the athletic visibility seen in these images long preceded full institutional parity. Light handling wear overall with typical age toning and minor surface wear; inscriptions and verso attachments remain present; overall very good. Varied and visually engaging archive for the study of women's athletics press representation and the long development of competitive tennis culture. unknown
1926ref. 164521926. Wills Helen. Time: The Weekly News-Magazine July 26 1926 cover issue featuring the American tennis champion during the year of her celebrated encounter with Suzanne Lenglen and her emergence as one of the most visible women athletes of the interwar period. Wills ultimately won 19 major singles titles including eight Wimbledon championships as well as Olympic gold medals in singles and doubles at Paris in 1924; her eight Wimbledon singles titles remained the women's record until Martina Navratilova surpassed it in 1990. The present cover therefore belongs to the period in which Wills was becoming not simply a successful competitor but a nationally recognizable female sports figure offering evidence of the expanding place of women athletes within American mass media and celebrity culture. Time: The Weekly News-Magazine. Vol. VIII No. 4. New York: Time Publishing Company July 26 1926. Complete issue; pagination and dimensions not supplied. Helen Wills appears prominently on the cover. Earlier that year on February 16 at Cannes she faced France's Suzanne Lenglen in their only singles meeting a contest so heavily publicized that Time compared its attention to that surrounding the Locarno conference. Lenglen won 6-3 8-6 but Wills's performance against the dominant French champion further established her international standing. The issue thus captures Wills at a pivotal point between her early American successes and the sustained dominance that began the following year when she won her first Wimbledon singles title. Wills's later career underscores the historical weight of this early cover appearance. She went on to dominate women's tennis through much of the late 1920s and 1930s and in 1933 she defeated Phil Neer then ranked eighth among American men in a San Francisco exhibition match an unusual mixed-sex contest four decades before the much-publicized Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs match of 1973. The 1926 Time cover therefore documents both the media construction of a female athletic celebrity and the broader cultural visibility of women's competitive sport during the interwar years. No specific defects are supplied; overall very good. A strong contemporary periodical source for the study of Helen Wills women in sport tennis history and the representation of female athletic achievement in American popular media. unknown

Small inkspot on upper cover small chips from spine otherwise an excellent copy of a rare fragile and important work. 22; 42 pp. Illustrated with diagrams and wood engravings. 1 vols. 16mo. A fascinating glimpse into the early days of a a sport just getting organized in the United States The United States National Lawn Tennis Association was founded in 1881 at the Fifth Avenue Hotel in New York City by a group of young players who wished to standardize the rules of the game and promote the sport later in 1920 "National" was dropped and the organization became simply the USLTA. The Rules they adopted eventually became a standard reference for aficionados of the fledgling sport. All early editions of the Rules of the game are quite rare including this 1886 printing and they can be divided into two groups of titles: those using "Official Rules" and those using "Playing Rules". According to Phelps & Sabine editions of the THE OFFICIAL LAWN TENNIS RULES AS ADOPTED etc. appeared in 1881 Philadelphia Lippincott and 1882 Boston Wright & Dixon; but no copies of either of these editions is to be found in OCLC which lists however editions of 1885 and 1889 under that title. Also following Phelps & Sabine THE PLAYING RULES AS ADOPTED etc. was first published in New York in 1884 by Peck & Snyder. OCLC finds only one copy of that edition Brown University; Phelps & Sabine also refer to editions of 1886 this and 1889 -- however no copy of the 1886 edition is described. OCLC locates 3 copies: at St. Johns Yale and NY Public. The Racquet and Tennis CLub Library also holds a copy. The first section contains "The Laws of Lawn Tennis" and "The Constitution and By-Laws" of the fledgling Association with a section on "Cases and Decisions" by James Wright; the second section contains the "Rules of Umpires" a discussion of various rackets and balls Peck & Snyder manufacturers and illustrated ads for footwear lawn markers nets tennis paraphernalia etc. Finally there is a list of over 40 Clubs belonging to the Association including the "Cheynenne Lawn Tennis Club" in Wyoming with 50 members. Copies of any of these USLTA incunabula are quite rare and when found quite fragile.
