rif. 26905Wimbledon 1927. 1 tirage 115 x 170 mm dans l'encadrement 280 x 335 mm monté sur carton floqué du logo Lacoste. . Signé par René Lacoste à l'encre noire. . René Lacoste l'un des « Quatre Mousquetaires » du tennis français avec Henri Cochet Jean Borotra et Jacques Brugnon a remporté la Coupe Davis pour la France en 1927 et 1928. Sur le plan individuel il a remporté à trois reprises les Internationaux de France de tennis 1925 1927 1929 deux fois le tournoi de Wimbledon 1925 1928 et deux fois l'US Open 1926 1927. Il fut désigné meilleur joueur du monde en 1926 et 1927. René Lacoste est évidemment connu pour ses activités d'industriel et particulièrement pour la marque de textile portant son nom dont le logo est un crocodile. Son surnom « le crocodile » the Alligotor lui fut attribué par la presse américaine à la suite d'un pari qu'il aurait fait en 1923 avec Allan Muhr alors capitaine de l'équipe de Coupe Davis à Boston. Lacoste aurait craqué sur une superbe malle en alligator dans la vitrine d'une boutique. Allan Muhr voyant l'intérêt de acoste pour cet objet lui aurait proposé ce pari : s'il remporte un match décisif la malle est à lui. Le match fut perdu mais l'anecdote du pari remonta jusqu'à un journaliste qui décida de surnommer Lacoste The Alligator ce qualificatif rappelant aussi qu'il était un joueur tenace « qui ne lâchait jamais sa proie ». S'inspirant du surnom donné à Lacoste Robert George dessine alors un crocodile qu'il fait broder en 46 couleurs sur le blazer blanc que porte en avant match Lacoste au niveau de la poche. Cette photographie prise à Wimbledon en 1927 est l'un des plus célèbres du joueur arborant ce fameux blazer. Six ans plus tard après avoir mis un terme à sa carrière il lance avec André Gillier le leader de la bonneterie française la marque Lacoste une collection de polos principalement destinée aux joueurs de tennis et aux golfeurs. Habitués à porter une chemise aristocratique à manches les joueurs de tennis vont rapidement se laisser convaincre par le caractère à la fois sportif et élégant de ces nouvelles tenues. Ce logo à usage personnel devient vite le symbole de la marque. Le logo varie selon les tailles et couleurs avant que Lacoste ne tranche pour un petit crocodile vert à écailles blanches gueule ouverte et rouge. Qui ne connaîtra aucune variation jusqu'en 2011 où le logo subit une légère refonte. [Wimbledon, 1927]. 1 tirage (115 x 170 mm) dans l'encadrement (280 x 335 mm) monté sur carton, floqué du logo Lacoste. unknown

Marsh 1907 - 1982 a native New Yorker was among the fundamental figures in the growth of college basketball as a major sport. Marsh was assistant sports editor of the New York Herald Tribune. Marsh started at the paper as a copy boy while still a student at City College. By 1930 he was regularly covering college basketball then a sport confined to local rivalries in cramped campus gyms. An occasional "big game" found its way to an armory. Ned Irish introduced intersectional doubleheaders to Madison Square Garden in December 1934 and Marsh was quick to see the potential of the sport. He helped organize the Metropolitan Basketball Writers Association that year and in 1938 was a leader in founding the N.I.T. which was originally sponsored by the writers group. Marsh was also attracted by college football partly because of the Herald Tribune's sponsorship of an All-Star game for the benefit of the Fresh Air Fund and partially because of his association with Columbia. He served three terms 1942-47 1951-53 and 1966-68 as Columbia's sports information director. Marsh along with Everett B. Morris of the Herald Tribune started the East-West College All-Star basketball game at Madison Square Garden in 1946. The annual event which ran until 1964 was also a benefit for the Fresh Air Fund. Marsh was not only active in the promotion of the Garden event but also in the assembling of the teams and maintaining the relationship with the N.C.A.A. and the colleges whose players appeared in the game. The All-Star game gave heightened visibility to college players and the schools they represented. Marsh was instrumental in developing the Eastern College Athletic Conference into a major factor in the organization of college sports. The E.C.A.C. began as the central office of Eastern Intercollegiate Athletics in 1938 primarily as a clearinghouse for the assignment of game officials. It later grew into an organization of over 100 colleges that conducted championships in several sports. Marsh founded the E.C.A.C. Service Bureau its publicity and statistical arm in 1947. The Herald Tribune closed in 1966 and Marsh worked for its ill-fated successor the World Journal Tribune until it closed May 5 1967. In July 1969 he became the full-time head of the E.C.A.C. Service Bureau in Manhattan. He retired in June 1973. Marsh and Edward Ehre founded and co-edited the hardcover book annual Best Sports Stories E.P. Dutton from 1945 to 1980 a book that helped elevate sportswriting and also recognized its quality.
