Hazell’s Streamline Red Star 1936

Following the launch of the Blue Star, Hazell’s introduced the Red Star variant as part of the expanding Streamline series. While the triple-shaft construction remained unchanged, the racquet head on the first Red Star edition was slightly slimmer, reflecting a subtle evolution toward a more refined and aerodynamic profile. This modification, combined with the model’s balanced frame characteristics, made the Red Star particularly appealing to players who favored controlled swings and a precise hitting surface. The red lacquer finish gave the racquet a distinct visual identity and enhanced its visibility on court. rom the mid to late 1930s, the Red Star gained popularity among club-level and competitive players, especially in the UK and Commonwealth markets. The model exemplified Hazell’s early use of color-coded product lines. A forward-looking strategy that helped define the Streamline series as one of the most distinctive racquet designs of its era.
