Alexander 100

Alexander 100 tells a uniquely Tasmanian story of creativity, community and global ambition.

Founded in 1925, the Alexander Patent Racket Company produced world-renowned tennis racquets and other high-quality sporting goods that helped shape Australian sporting culture.

This exhibition celebrates the centenary of the company and explores the innovation, design and marketing brilliance that placed a small Tasmanian manufacturer on the global stage.

It also tells the human story of the people behind the products, the local community, and the rise and fall of a sporting icon.

Discover the legacy of a company that made a mark well beyond its size – earning an international reputation and the endorsement of champions – and whose impact still resonates in Australia's sporting and manufacturing history today.
