Racket by Gerald Gurney, former editor-in-chief of the Tennis Collector Society. Gerald told us: The racket hides a very sad secret. Though badly damaged, it survived a night in a house in London that was bombed and burned down in World War II by the German Nazis. It finally found its way to Gerald Gurney. Gerald eventually donated it to the Berlin Tennis Gallery.
