Check this one.. I had this signed by Duke a long time ago..I was 20-21 (32 now). Duke is a friend of my dads and when Duke was living in Ft.Worth a few years ago I got to know him. Duke is a great guy..This was when he broke the record for three consecutive 300's during qualifying.. I have several other bowling stuff, but this is the coolest..

Read the article. Steve Jaros averaging 240!!!:) Norm rolls all those perfecto's and is still in third place! That's more bowling coverage in one article than the paper in Charleston,SC has in a year.:(

Cool article. Best stuff I have are my: Hammer Everclear spare ball, No Mercy Doormat, and new Black Widow Clear. Not sure if any of my things are memorabilia, but they are in my bowling/music room and give me inspiration.:cool:

daniel275, is there anyway you can copy the article and send it to me? would like to read it very much, and i agree it's a great piece of memorabilia. my favorites of what i have or two autographed bowling pins; one of some touring pros from a proam (the date eludes me at this late hour) and also a pin for the ladies tour many years ago from a tournament just east of St Louis, Mo., over in Illinois. Best of all, on the ladies autographed pin, i had the sincere honor of meeting and getting Dick Weber's signature. that is one i will cherish forever. just a few months ago Pete Weber made an apperance at Town and Country Lanes in Washington, Mo., about 45 miles west of St Louis and I was able to get his autograph as well.

i do not have a whole lot of things from the past other than a couple of old signed pins from the pros back in the day but i do remember my first national event in reno, nv. we walked in and it was qualifying for the senior masters and i met a few of the old guys, they were very inviting and Gary Handyman ?? i think was his name actually stuck around and watched me bowl my first game that year and said stick with it kid your pretty good, (LOL) i still remeber it....

I had a pin with Amletto's and Lisa Wagners signature on it I had it down in my sports bar at my old house. I gave it to idlehour and maybe he could post a pic of the pin for you guys. Here is a pic of my personal sports bar in my basement I made atmy old house.
