Original Vintage Photo; The Lake Tahoe Area "Early Tennis Image" Circa 1920

$ 195
  • Description
    Vintage "Lake Tahoe Area Photograph", circa 1920, of a large group of people, (mostly women) practicing their tennis on what is likely being promoted as a brand new cement tennis court at a Lake Tahoe resort, with the line "Do you ever indulge in this sport" written in script at the bottom of the photograph. In addition to the lady's formal tennis attire of the day, what is of particular interest are the very fancy luxury touring cars off to the side; obviously "summer tennis camp for wealthy adults". Just another lovely day at Lake Tahoe. This is a wonderful image for those who collect Tahoe area images; in addition to those who are tennis and sports collecting enthusiasts.

    Print is made from the original negative (see images). It comes with a hard board 16" x 20" matte surround, ready for your framing choice; excellent all original condition, no fading, flaws, or marks on this image. My proximity to Lake Tahoe (I live at the lake) provides me the opportunity to acquire photos of the area.

    Provenance: Recently acquired from a San Francisco/Lake Tahoe estate

    Dimensions:
    10 1/2" high x 16" wide (actual photograph)
    16" x 20" (with included matte surround (see image)
