Other information: The names of those pictured are nearly all unknown. Three players are sitting on the grass with their rackets. One of them is singles finalist Henry Bassford (far right). That's either Daniel Smiley (1855–1930) or a lookalike, standing fifth from the top left. It's based on the distinctively white, bushy mustache and goatee beard. He was the resort's proprietor from 1912 to 30. Vintage scene: towers–courts–footbridge. Wikimedia Commons.
