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

2018ill. La prima volta fu da bambino, nel 1937. Il bambino divenne giovane tennista e, nel 1953, affrontò un lungo viaggio fino a Londra, con una vecchia Topolino, per calcare l'erba di quello che uno dei suoi maestri, Giorgio Bassani, avrebbe definito «il Vaticano del tennis». Da allora, abbandonata ogni speranza di vincere un giorno i Championships, Gianni Clerici non ha mai smesso di raccontare, con infinita competenza, i trionfi e le cadute dei grandi che hanno fatto la storia del torneo di tennis più importante, il primo a essere disputato sin dal 1877. Perché il mito del tennis è il mito di Wimbledon, e gli articoli di Clerici - qui raccolti in un volume arricchito di profili dei campioni, annotazioni personali, fotografie e aggiornato fino al 2017 - rievocano l'epopea di un gioco passato dal dilettantismo al professionismo, dalle racchette di legno a quelle costruite in materiali spaziali. Nelle cronache dello Scriba - come è stato definito Clerici dagli anglofoni - scorrono sessantacinque anni di storia dello sport più amato, in una sorta di «rivisitazione del tempo perduto ai margini dei court». Ci sono le vittorie di Jimmy Connors, «l'Antipatico», di Bjòrn Borg, «l'Orso», di John McEnroe, «il Bauscia», e poi i record di Roger Federer e delle sorelle Williams, ma anche gli amori chiacchierati di Martina Navratilova, o la bizzarra storia di un ricco maragià indiano, che solo in punto di morte riuscì a ottenere l'ammissione all'esclusivissimo All England and Croquet Club di Wimbledon. Così, in queste pagine lo Scriba alterna curiosità e aneddoti, dati e considerazioni tecnico-tattiche, esplorando la storia del torneo che eterna chi lo vince.
