Description

This wonderful book harks back to an era when a night on the town meant heading to a gleaming bowling emporium for stiff competition, fine cuisine, and fancy cocktails. Leagues ruled the lanes and folks tuned in Saturday afternoons to see champs roll strikes, spares, and trick balls. Packed with chapters on bowling's history, fashion, champions, and alley architecture and featuring over 100 vintage images culled from the International Bowling Museum and Hall of Fame's archives, this colorful compendium is a unique tribute to the ever-popular tradition and culture of bowling. The authors have long been avid bowlers.
