Mini Story or Hook

A fabulous piece of retro bowling history, this vintage TOSCA ten pin bowling bag captures the bold styling of the 1970s.

The distinctive tall, tapered shape was designed to accommodate a bowling ball, while the reinforced black base provides additional support. Finished in striking red with contrasting black trim, gold-tone piping and long twin handles, it has a fantastic period look.

One of its best details is the original TOSCA identification/address holder prominently mounted on the front – a feature that gives the bag unmistakable vintage character.

Perfect for a vintage bowling enthusiast, TOSCA collector, retro display or for pairing with a period bowling ball.
