US Patent No. 32138 Lawn Tennis Net Tightener by CW Jefferson June 16 1885 vintage indiana bloody footnote in the empireUs Patent No. 32138 Lawn Tennis Net Tightener by Cw Jefferson June 16 1885 Jefferson's schematic belongs to the flannels and garden party era of lawn tennis, when a sagging net could undo a Sunday match, and the apparatus he drew, with its ratcheted tension and patient mechanical logic, treats the sideline post as seriously as any racquet.
