Mahony was a very well known and popular player at Queens, quoted as being an adept volleyer, which no doubt helped him on the fast courts and contributed to his success and he was the life and soul of many a game and many a frolic. How often we heard him give his views on the game in his own delightful way, in all parts of the Club (McKelvie, R., The Queen's Club, (1886-1986), an article by E.B. Noel, Tennis at the Queen's Club, first published in 'The Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News', 16/11/1918, London: Stanley Paul & Co., 1986, p.27 & 36).
Provenance: Awarded to Harald Segerson Mahony and thence by family descent.
