So, is this a real bowling ball or a sculpture?

(not that I would buy it regardless of the answer, just curious)

mumzie maybe you could sign your wrist braces. mechanized wo-man, low brow sports, battling decay of aging, try to hit major americana topics in a psuedo-post-modernism meets dada manner.

wristbrace on a stand"shrine" in front of a 12x16 super realistic, although to most unawares-abstract, photo print of a used piece of thumb tape, an "i beat earl  anthony" patch circa 1978 stapled to the picture frame composed of unstained maple and pine 1" wide slats.

It is probably going to the lanes at the White House. You know how the government likes to over pay for stuff. $3000 for a toilet seat etc...

It makes me wonder that if someone is stupid enough to spend money on crap like  this,  how they were smart enough to earn that kind of money in the first place.

What's most impressive is that the material used to make this sculpture used to be cubic in shape.

$1500 is a steal for that kind of talent.
