Multiple Racket Presses: Preserving the Past

Racket presses have long been an essential tool for maintaining wooden tennis rackets. By keeping the frame straight and taut, they prevent warping and extend the life of these vintage pieces.

This page showcases two types of presses: a 25-racket press, designed for larger collections or club use, and a 4-racket press, suitable for smaller personal collections. Both illustrate the ingenuity of solutions developed to care for wooden rackets, ensuring that these historical treasures remain in excellent condition for generations to come.

This large multiple racket press is a remarkable example of early tennis equipment. Such presses were only manufactured between 1900 and 1920, making them rare collector’s items today. They were designed to keep multiple wooden rackets straight and protected, preserving their shape and ensuring optimal performance.
