strong>Vintage Tennis racquets
I own a vintage gut strung tennis racquet. Are there any UK specialists capable of restringing it?

The racquet is wooden, rare and quite valuable so I will need a true 'specialist' rather than a typical High Stree sports shop. Must be UK - preferable South East

I don't live in the UK,But I'm a member of The Tennis Collectors of America.I may be able to come up with a few ideas.

There is a German named Siegfried Kuebler who is probably the world's foremost expert on tennis rackets.He might be able to refer you to a vintage racket specialist in the UK.
His email is siegfried.kuebler@t-online.de

You can try the string forum website.They might know of someone who can string a vintage racket.

There is a great dealer of tennis books in England,Alan Chalmers.
He has a store called the tennis bookshop.He may know someone who can help you.His email is on the site.

I collect rackets,and have done cleaning and repairs on them.I have really learned by doing it myself. Best wishes on finding a good stringer.
