Tennis Anyone?

September 7, 2005, Twin City News-Record
I saw an earlier version of this photo one time in the Back in Time column and it didn't have any of the detail listed here.  In fact, it was just thrown out there as a tennis fan in the 1920's.  But judging from the fashion, I knew this was taken much earlier than the '20's and now I'm glad I was hesitant to publish it with the lack of details.  Being that this was John Strange's daughter, it totally brings it into Menasha's orbit.  The News-Record inconveniently cuts off the caption which places the Athearn Hotel in Oshkosh.  There's a good post about the Athearn at this blog site:  https://williamwatersoshkosharchitect.blogspot.com/2013/10/the-athearn-hotel.html
