Collection of 10 programs from the United States Lawn Tennis Association Championships (USLTA; now called the U.S. Open) dating from 1946, 1947, 1948 and 1950 through 1956. The 1946 program has 62 pages and is in excellent condition, with only some minor staining and creasing on the back cover and last few pages. The 1947 program features 56 pages and is also completely intact; the spine and cover show wear and there is a vertical fold mark apparent through about half the pages. The 1948 program is for the National Singles Championships; its 52 pages are intact and in excellent condition. The 1950 program for the USLTA Singles Championships is also intact and features the signatures of Gardnar Mulloy, Don Budge and Vic Seixas on the front cover. The remaining programs are for the USLTA singles championships; all are intact and full of black and white photographs and period advertisements. Overall, the programs are in VG-EX condition. Great collection for the tennis buff.
