A Wilson brand BLX Pro Staff Six. One 90 tennis racket used and gifted to Pelé in 2012 by Swiss professional tennis player Roger Federer. Federer is one of only seven men to capture a career Grand Slam and is regarded by many to be one of the greatest tennis players of all time. Federer gave the racket to Pelé when the two met at Pelé's home in Brazil in 2012. The racket is signed and inscribed along the shaft in black marker by Federer and reads "To Pele, it's a dream to meet you! Love, Roger Federer." The racket is additionally signed by Federer on the grip and on the opposite side of the racket in black marker. The racket has been used by Federer, with the model being photo-matched to many tournaments Federer played in 2012, but it is unknown if the racket was used in tournament play. 27 by 10 1/4 inches $3000-5000 £2100-3500 Categories: PELÉ
