question about how rare 2 balls are...
« on: June 28, 2005, 06:17:08 AM »
I have recently found a ball in my fathers closet, and i was wondering if this ball is of any rarity.

It is a 16lb Ebonite Gyro soft Rubber... Drilled once and has not been resurfaced, It will need to be resurfaced in the future as it has many small scratches on it, and a few larger nicks...

Also A 15lb The Angle... same specs as the first ball

Like I said, is this ball worth anything?

sorry, not a big find. Those balls where put out for many years so they are not rare. If it was NIB, that would be better.

I would say the ball is worth 10 bucks maybe..

If they only made a ball that would carry that da_n 7 pin (and I am right handed!!)

It's a bowling ball, duh!

Seriously, what color is the ball?  There were several.  Basic answer is it was a standard in just about everyones bag back in the uerathane days.

I believe this was the first and most common of the Angles
