Set 'Em Up (1939) - YouTube

We sat there & had a laugh watching this - but none the less - a very young Andy Verippapa - and Ned Day - world matchplay champion (1939) we were as happy as a duck in a blizzard !!!....lol..


Enjoy !!!

Love how the pinsetter guy sits right there just above the decks within a small distance of the pins. Musn't have had too many flying pins those days you would hope.

That's a pre-conventional one finger grip. Heard of them, but that's the first time I've seen one. What a classic old film! And aren't they the most pristine wood lanes you've seen? I love how there are different sized balls to use too. The pin boys aren't worried about atomic messenger pins either. What does that say..?

Love it! Thanks for sharing Dale.

Yes, great. That was how I was taught to bowl. 2 fingers though - not one. It's still fairly much how I still do it
Doesn't get the results I used to get, though............... Wonder if that could be me? ... Nah..............
