1934 F. H. Ayres’ Antique Lawn Tennis Jr. Wimbledon Balls in Original Box

Offered here is a rare and highly collectible set of Six 1934 F.H. Ayres’ Junior “Wimbledon” Lawn Tennis Balls, still housed in the original box, a remarkable survivor from the golden age of lawn tennis. This set exemplifies the quality craftsmanship and attention to detail that made Ayres a preeminent name in early 20th-century tennis equipment.

The balls themselves are carefully constructed to Ayres’ exacting standards, designed for smooth, consistent play and longevity. The original box is vibrantly preserved, featuring period typography and graphics that emphasize the “Wimbledon” designation—a mark of prestige and quality. The set remains exceptionally clean, with the balls maintaining their original shape and surface integrity, and the box showing minimal wear, a rarity for sports equipment of this vintage.

Sets of Ayres “Wimbledon” balls in original packaging are exceedingly scarce, particularly from the 1930s, making this a museum-quality artifact. It serves as both a piece of antique tennis history and a visual showcase of vintage sports merchandising.

A rare and historically significant relic, perfect for display in any advanced collection of vintage tennis equipment or early 20th-century sporting goods.
