The other day an old lady came into my dads shop wanting a ball drilled. She said she had it in the closet for 40+ years and just finally wanted to get it drilled up. My dad explained to her that the new stuff was much better made and made her a deal to buy the old one off her.
It''s a 1966 original 15lb AMF Amflite, brand new undrilled, still has the original plastic, but not the original box. I was just wondering if anybody has an idea what this ball might be worth to a collector. Apparently it was the first 3-piece ball or something, so that may give it more value.
Here''s a video that shows the original commercial:
