Antique Birmal All Metal Lawn Tennis Racket
About the Item
Vintage tennis racket, Birmal all metal racket.
A fine 'Birmal' all metal lawn tennis racket made by the Birmingham Aluminium casting Co. The racket has the original metal strings, the aluminium frame has the Regd No.693327 on the throat and the patent No. 230523 on the handle, the frame is also embossed with "Birmingham Aluminium Casting (1903) Co. Ltd.", "Birmal", " All Metal" and the number 13. The whipped handle has had some attention but does retain a lot of the original red and black cord. This is a wonderful racket in very good original condition.
Birmingham Aluminium Casting (1903) Co. Ltd. (known as Birmal) grew out of the bicycle boom in the late 1890s. Aluminium was only just being recognised as a manufacturing material with Birmal being an early pioneer. By the late 1930s they supplied aluminium alloy to those who required it, especially the aircraft and automobile industries.
