A male foursome in shirtsleeves plays this outdoor racquet game a precursor of tennis while spectators look on. Tennis in France evolved from a game played with the bare hand to one where the hand was protected.

1900200841900. 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.<br /> <br /> 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.<br /> <br /> 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
