A TILT-HEADED LIGHTWEIGHT RACKET, 1870s

Details
A TILT-HEADED LIGHTWEIGHT RACKET, 1870s
probably made by Feltham & Co., unusual single strip countersinking, original stringing and remains of original sheepskin grip (racket head distorted and distressed handle).

Almost certainly an experimental model, as single strip countersinking did not appear in racket catalogues until fifty years later.
