Spencer Moulton tennis balls
.
The George Spencer Moulton rubber company in Bradford on Avon made a wide range of things of rubber, including sports goods. A special line was tennis balls, but their absence from the Museum collection has at last been filled by a donation of a set of three in their original tin container. The base of the tin is embossed “LTA”, which probably means that the balls had been certified by the Lawn Tennis Association.
Space has been found for them in the rubber industry display case.
