DUNLOP MAXPLY
DUNLOP MAXPLY, DUNLOP MAXPLY INTERNATIONAL, DUNLOP MAXPLY TOURNEMENT, DUNLOP FORT MAXPLY and its many variants have been very significant names in the tennis world for half a century, and undoubtedly the most appreciated racket model of the DUNLOP brand. The model appeared in 1931 and for 50 years there have been changes in the logo and in the graphics of the racket. In 1981, on the fiftieth anniversary, the brand marketed a “limited edition” of the “MAXPLY” model in tune with the new racket concepts.

WILSON & JACK KRAMER
Jack Kramer was not the first player to whom the Wilson brand dedicated a racket model, but he is the player to whom the brand has dedicated the most. Not surprisingly, the most significant JACK KRAMER AUTOGRAPH model was marketed for 35 years, between 1949 and 1984. Several models have carried the player’s name, and many others have his image.
