SLAZENGER'S SOLID-WOOD MULTIPLE TENNIS RACKET PRESSThis tennis racket press has thick, solid stained wood top and bottom with three thinner natural wood separators; so multiple rackets (three or four) can be pressed at one time. Three large bolts extend through the pieces of wood with wing nut fasteners. There is a leather handle that is worn attached to the top. Wood in fine condition. Rust evident to bolts and handle supports. This British sporting good company was founded in 1...881 and given the style of lettering of the label I would date this circa 1890-1920.
