You don't see many of these still NOS and boxed.

I don't know what size they are. Unfortunately, it's not my listing, just thought it might be of interest to someone.

OK, thanks for letting us know about it. I wouldn't mind having them in my collection.
Can anyone tell if they really are from 1965 as it says?

Also, have you noticed how it says "Skateboard Bowling" on the side. Isn't that cool? Or, maybe not. It's just a proof of some stupid manufacturer who put an incorrect label on the packaging. But anyway 40 yrs later we can laugh at it!

Hey, I think that's Keith Hollien on the cover (the pro in the red, white, and blue box logo)..., man is he old :)

If it was I would have bid a lot more for a box! If anyone has one in their collection, can you post up a close up picture?

Dunn, Fluitt and I had about a 100 of those back in the 70s/80s. Worked great, hard plastic with one edge of the bottom lip cut off.
