Old Ball information
« on: June 24, 2004, 11:51:55 PM »
I there, can anyone help. When I was a teenager I was given a bowling ball which is an Ebonite ball with the word 'Rainbow' printed on the side. I gave up bowling due to an injury and have only just (10 years later) start to bowl again. Can anyone tell me anything about this ball ?? Someone must of had one once...... Thanks

IS this the one that you had?

IF I remember correctly the Rainbow series was only plastic.
I think the tornado series had both.

What color was the ball?

Yeah,

You might want to look at the scout line from Columbia.
It is a solid beginners line of balls.

Or Tornado line from Ebonite!  Very similar to scout line.
