Wooden Racquet
What is called a “wooden racquet” in tennis?
When were wooden racquets used in tennis?
Wooden rackets marked an era from 1874 to the end of the 1970s, with the definitive transition to oval form at the beginning of the twentieth century. Of course, in so many years the methods of assembly saw an improvement, but the construction technique remained almost unchanged: a frame built through the stratification of six, seven strips of wood (mainly ash) of different quality and elasticity, compressed and glued together that made each tennis racket unique. The strings were made of natural gut, the leather cover of the handle that after a couple of weeks of play darkened in contact with sweat in the area of the handshake.
