Squash Collection

red them from municipal tips, charity shops, Ebay, auction houses, obsolete stock from stores, gifts from manufactures, and former Squash players, including some very generous World Champions. Most of the older Squash 1900 – 1930, are English brands most long out of business, have been acquired from EBay and international auctions, as were about 45 wooden mint ~ still in wrapping, from 1960 – 80. Nth American Squash is represented with Rackets, Covers, Books, Trophies, Balls, & Photos. The 300 odd books, magazines, programmes,and pamplets, include the 1st book by Eustace Miles c.1903, many signed, all of Jonah Barrington’s,[thanks to Sarah Fitz-Gerald] a signed leather bound Heather McKay. Banners, Badges, Cups, Neckties, Balls in boxes c.1970, Shirts signed by world champs, it goes on & on, anything that has Squash mentioned. Retired players, local and around the world, have been incredibly generous in their support, donating many items and advice. My wife Jo ( also a collector, of Porcelain/sewing implements/lace.etc,etc) and I have traveled through most of Australia and the World looking at Antique markets, charity shops, flea markets ,municipal tips & EBay gathering items. Jo was also a handy Squash player so she is most supportive, but sometimes see her eying the Court, which would make a sensational display area for her collection.
