    I set pins in a 4 lane house up on stilts back around 1946 using spikes, no racks, this brings back memories.

      By spikes do you mean those stick thingies you brought up with a foot pedal? Brunswick made those as far as I remember.

    Absolutely the coolest thing i've ever seen in bowling. There was a very old place in the town I grew up in that had 8 lanes and pin boys and it was the first bowling alley I learned in with my dad but it went out of business when a big bowling alley opened a half mile away. I hardly remember it cause I was only 7 yrs old.. back in 74

    Another old center still operating is the Bryant Lake Bowl, in Minneapolis, Minn. This one has the original pin setting machines, when pins were first set by machine, the old cork and rubber balls, and oil by hand, was very fun bowling there, I tried my modern equipment on these lanes, and could not even keep it on the lane. Was interesting to find the exact same kind of ball that I had when I learned to bowl at 8 yrs old. I did ok with the old rubber and cork ball. I was just going in and bowling, lanes were not freshly dressed, they are sanctioned, as vintage, and they do have league bowling in the winter. I did have to show a couple of young people how to keep score by pencil and paper. I think these were 1950s era, food was good as well, cooked in a vintage bowling alley kitchen.

      Holden Village, a camp/retreat center deep in the mountains of WA, has a 4 lane alley that they are in the process of restoring. Refinished the lanes this past fall, and will be tuning up the old Brunswick B-10s this coming spring. Great old alley that was built in 1937, and will hopefully continue going strong into the future.

    I grew up in Park Falls, WI in the 1950's - 60's. I began my bowling 'career' as a kid at Feit's bowling alley, located in the luxurious downtown area. They had four lanes and converted to automatic pinsetters in the late 50's. They featured eight 5-member teams (men's leagues) that bowled on week nights. They would alternate between early and late shifts to accommodate an eight team schedule. The camaraderie among those guys was infectious! The house featured a dedicated wooden bench seating area behind the approach and settee area for spectators (and wannabes). I seem to remember it being three-tiered and had a seating capacity of about 12 - 15. That place rocked! Later in life, still obsessed with bowling, I owned and operated a four lane house in Sheboygan, WI from 1990 - 1996. I re-lived and absolutely relished that same four lane sanctioned league bowling camaraderie. What a hoot! At the time, we were the 5th oldest, continuously operated, ABC (American Bowling Congress) sanctioned house in the U.S. Sadly, the lanes and machines were removed several years after I sold the business. I also had the distinct privilege of being the assistant manager of the Playdium Lanes also located in Sheboygan until the day it burned down, February 22, 1977. It was my 1st (and last) day of being in charge of the building as the owner, general manager, and manager were all out of town at a bowling tournament. When it's all said and done for me, I believe there's a good chance I'll be buried with a bowling ball in my casket and (hopefully) a smile on my face and my old ABC card in one of my pockets.

  • @pizzasubs

    This was so cool to actually see what lanes used to actually look like in the older days. where workers actually worked behind the pins....I remem one time, one of my local Casinos actually did something that I have never seen before, they actually built a lane for people to bowl on, but this one was not just one lane, it was actually TWO lanes hooked together end to end, so however long one lane was, imagine doubling that, the bowler would have to throw a rather straight ball all the way down the two lanes to reach the pins, That was rather hard to do........

      @@20alphabet but how? I have some older bowling balls as well but they suck in comparison to anything now. If you're bowling in a league or on a sports pattern those old balls will have like 5 boards of movement. The weight blocks were nonexistent and the surface did nothing. You probably have to sand that thing with steel wool and throw it straight at the headpin. Then hope for 9 but at least your strike ball will hook less than a plastic ball. New stuff is great and it actually works on modern conditions. There is a reason people prefer everything now over everything in the past. Saying otherwise just proves you have the get off of my lawn mentality. You still driving around in a horse and buggy? I see you have internet and thats a huge step lol

    I regularly bowl on wood lanes in worse condition than those, though of only about half the age. They're mated with A2 pinsetters; glad I don't have to wait for nor pay a pinboy! I actually bowled a 197 (third time bowling in 10 years) with a 12 pound house ball! Also, I'm sure there are balls there older than 40 years. Even my lanes still have Manhattan Rubber house balls. They should have tried throwing an old wood ball just for the fun of it.

    25 cents? Try single digits. Average price of gasoline in 1910 was 7 cents. But keep in mind the average salary was under $700 a year.
    10,000 gallons of gas could be purchased per year on that salary, vs today the average salary is $50,000, and at a rate of $3.53 a gallon average, 14000 gallons of gas can be purchased. So gas was more expensive back in the early 20th century than it is today.

    Earl "the machine" Anthony (rip) could have walked in with a rubber ball and average 200!
    Have 10 PBA "kids" take on 10 PBA elder bowlers and see who scores higher over 10 games throwing only 1 rubber ball (label drill) on these wood lacquer lanes prepped with a bug sprayer... My dream 3 man team would be Earl, Dick Weber, and Mark Roth....

    well you also have to realize that back then gas was much cheaper, like 25-50 cents per gallon.

      Everything was correspondingly cheaper. Most diners only cost a dime for coffee, including refills.

    Lets see the little young crankers go impress somebody here with oil put down with a spray can and rubber bowling balls! They will NOT be swinging the ball and crossing boards.And I'm guess if the PBA did the story they know if they are certified lanes or not.

      +Jeff Bear HAHA!!! omg...would love to see some young high school kids trying to crank across these lanes in an effort to be impressive. We got a few that come into my little town bowling alley that try to crank with a house ball, and it usually ends up in the gutter...might hit 7 or 10...and on extremely rare and lucky occasions will actually strike....sloppily.

    personally I would like to see bowling revert to the past...could still have machine pinsetters but have the rest. the bowling balls and precision of the pins and side walls etc. nowadays just have hurt the sport. I remember when even for the pros 200+ average for a tournament likely places you in the top 5. now you have to be 220+ and that may not even be good enough. 300 games used to be semi-rare...now are pretty common place. the technology has made the game easier and more forgiving for those with modern balls and can put a lot of spin on the ball.

      What are you talking about? Bowling has gotten more popular and more competitive than ever. Get out of the past. We’re doing nothing for the sport but making it better. It’s kind of disrespectful to say that these pro bowlers are hurting the sport

    We had a older bowling alley 4 lanes pin sitters back in late 60s and the dumb ass city took it out it would of been nice to have kept it for the history.
