This photograph shows a large group of people, including men, women and children, wielding tennis rackets on a tennis green. The photograph is labelled "Linton Tennis Club", but the only club in Palmerston North at the time this picture is thought to have been taken is the "Palmerston North Tennis Club". Their neat clothing may indicate that this is a picnic or afternoon tea, rather than an actual match.
