Photograph of a view of a tennis match at Purcell's Las Tunas Rancho Tennis Court, July 12, 1884. Other tennis players are sitting under the trees in the background. Players on the court are: (Left) Miss Edith Allen and Mr. J.N. Tierman; (Right) Miss Ruth Wilson, Mr. W.H. Young; (Scorer) Mr. Arthur Allen. Unlike the more modern look of shorts and t-shirts, these players are fully clothed wearing shirt, vests, and ties for the men and long dresses for women. A man sits in a chair near the net. A hose is sprawled out on the floor in the foreground.
