Famed American tennis player (1893–1953) whose major tournament victories number in the dozens (including six consecutive years as U.S. Singles Champion). Though his reputation was tainted by a pedophilic scandal and a jail term in the 1940s, a 1950 Associated Press poll named him the greatest tennis player of the first half of the twentieth century. Vintage glossy 8 x 10 photo of a smiling Tilden posing with his racquet, signed and inscribed in fountain pen, “To Albert H— Goodrich, Bill, Wm. J. Tilden.” Corner creases and a few scattered dings and surface marks, otherwise fine condition. Auction LOA Steve Grad/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
