EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the legendary Fred Perry, a British tennis player, in 1934. Captured by the London News Agency, this image is a testament to Perry's remarkable skill and athleticism on the court. The photograph is part of the renowned book "Wimbledon Story" by Norah Gordon Cleather, published in 1947. In this colorized print, Perry exudes confidence as he stands poised with his tennis racquet at Wimbledon's Centre Court. His sports kit reflects the fashion of the era while highlighting his status as a professional athlete. As one of Britain's most celebrated champions during the thirties, Perry left an indelible mark on both national and international tennis tournaments. The grandeur of this moment captures not only Perry's dedication to his craft but also represents a significant milestone in sporting history.
