Match Play and the Spin of the Ball.

  • New York: American Lawn Tennis, 1925
By Tilden, William T.

New York: American Lawn Tennis, 1925. "Big Bill" Tilden was the dominant player of the early 1920s and is considered to be one of the all-time greats. This heavily illustrated book combines technical instruction with highlights of Tilden's career. It also provides an interesting look at the way tennis used to be, which has little to do with the way tennis is today. Very good condition in original cloth binding, with contemporary news clippings tipped onto front blanks.. 22 cm. xxiv, 355 pp. b/w plates.
