It could definitely use a good cleaning and polishing - not sure how well the scratches will come out - but they don't appear too deep to us and certainly do add to the true vintage character of the ball! The overall impression is that this is one special bowling ball - you won't go unnoticed rocking and rolling it, or even just displaying it, that's for certain! A tip we've heard about is to be sure you let vintage bowling balls warm up to room temperature if you live in a cold climate to lessen the potential of them cracking on the first throw of the night down the alley. In case you are considering snagging it for your bowling league night as a nod to the past, first of all, we think that would be really cool, and second of all, we think it would work fine. For fun, see last photo for some retro bowling ad art (not included with ball) that reads: "The beautiful people are bowling." Clearly, these beautiful, groovy people would feel all the more beautiful rolling a Black Beauty Brunswick ball like this one! This retro bowling ball would be perfect either for your bowling league night or upcycled into a piece of yard or kitschy home living art.
Brunswick black beauty serial numbers serial number#
Engraved with "Brunswick" and "Black Beauty" in a great retro cursive font, plus the serial number "H8Y-757." Includes lovely retro font and gold color initials "A.J.F." from its previous caretaker. What a beaut.OK, we admit it, we think ALL vintage bowling balls rock (and roll - haha, get it?)! But just look at the awesome Brunswick bowling namesake and beautiful "Black Beauty" typography on this classic black ball! (Ball only - other items not included.)įrom the company with the quite egotistical (but true) tagline of, "#1 Name in Bowling," this Brunswick ball is in very good vintage condition with some scratches, no apparent cracks, a few light dings, and a bit of overall dulling from age (sounds strangely familiar!).
