A leather racquet cover in Louis Vuitton’s classic signature pattern. The cover snuggly protects a professional-sized badminton racquet. The chocolate-brown leather is accented with caramel-colored leather piping at the seams. The zipper is fitted with an “Éclair” pull, indicating that the piece was made between 1976 and 1991. The interior lining is brown cotton canvas such as was used in Vuitton’s “Keepall” and “Speedy” bags. Excellent condition, showing hardly any signs of wear, the interior lining has what appears to be a faint water stain (visible only in strong light and does not penetrate the leather). Size: 15-3/4” x 10-3/4”.
