Rare pair of early Eton Fives wooden rackets, traditionally used in the historic school sport associated with Eton College. These examples likely date from the early-mid 20th century and still retain their original natural gut stringing. Eton Fives equipment from this era is highly uncommon, as the sport was played at only a handful of English public schools and later evolved into a handball-style game without rackets. Early rackets like these were produced in very small numbers, making surviving examples sought after for collectors of school memorabilia and antique sporting equipment. Both rackets show age-related wear, flaking paint around the throat, and broken/deteriorated gut strings (see photos). Ideal as decorative pieces, museum-style display, or study items for those interested in English school sports history. See photos for measurements.
