Old Head Racquets

[fsagester]

I'm looking for a couple of racquets from my childhood that I want to display with the rest of the ones that I have and I can't seem to remember them exactly. Can anyone help me remember the model or even better where I can find one.

The first is from the late 80s. It's a Head racquet. It was graphite and was Blue/Green in color. If I remember right it was a midsize. That's about all I can remember other than to say I'll know it when I see it.

The second is a Head Junior racquet from the late 70s. It was aluminum with a plastic throat. The throat was kind of a chocolate brown and the grip was brown rubber. It wasn't a wrapped grip it was just one piece.

Thanks for any help.

was it this one?

 

[fsagester]

No that wasn't it. It was all blue/green with no white on the top.

I don't know if this will help, but here's a really grainy picture of it.

Graphite Professional? This one has had the white grommets replace by black CAP ones.

 

[fsagester]

Yes!!! That's it. Do you know what the model is and/or where I can get one?

Head Graphite Pro. Look on eb@y and there are a few for sale.

There are actually 3 listed. Do a search for "Head Graphite Pro" and also "Head Graphite Professional".

The labeling on the throat looks different that the picture from Kal-El 34. Are these the same racquets?

My kids toybox.

Lol. That's funny. I think it's more the one that Kal-El 34 posted. Do you know if those are different models?

mine is the larger headsized one it is not a midsize. There is a bit of a rattle in the one i have. I am sure it is just a piece of grommet. I've had it sitting in my closet so long.

If you want it and want to pay shipping + a couple bucks for the effort you can have it man. (TT board I am not doing this as a for sale just trying to help the guy out here)

I would appreciate it. I'm just going to display it on a wall so it doesn't matter if it has a rattle. What's your email address and I'll send you some info? Can I pay you with Paypal?

One down (Thanks for that. I really appreciate it.) Does anyone have any ideas on the Head Junior racquet?

Was a junior version of a "real" racket, or was it an aluminum cheapo?

 

[fsagester]

From what I can figure out it was similar to the Head Master Aluminum, but it was just a smaller size. It's kind of like taking the Head Master and just shrinking it. Does that make sense?

It had a red throat piece instead of blue.

Hmmm...not a Su-Per idea, IMO...if the mods are as strict as they were a few weeks ago.
