close to nothing unfortunately.
If its new in box, probably something in the $50-$60 range.
If drilled, not much.

you can go to any bowling center and find them on the ball rack. they use them for house balls. like megamavs said, if its new and undrilled, maybe fifty bucks.

Ahhhh! My very first bowling ball!

Bought it around 1970 for about $18. May have been the cheapest ball back then. Action was not too bad.

One thing I did not like about this ball that I'll remember forever: the "filler" was like particle board and I always got blister in my thumb( of course bowling 7-8 games a day didn't help, lol!). Thumb slugs( inserts) were "probably" not available back then. Didn't know better......

i believe the "filler" in those days was actually cork !
