Title: Need help figuring out what this ball is.
Post by: Ptownbowler1986 on February 17, 2025, 02:19:58 AM

Hey y'all I need help figuring out what this ball is, there is no name or serial number on it, the only info I have is that it's a mid century acryllic. Anything helps!

Thanks!

The only ones Ive seen close in that style that weren't from Ebonite were from Mikasa MG

I saw a couple of balls like that in the early 60s.  Never knew who made them

I've only seen ones like that from Mikasa, but I've never seen a Mikasa with a core.
