1 TARGET or RANGE BALL 2 1/2" in diameter, overall diamond pattern glass in a very light yellow / green color, rough sheared mouth on a unusually long neck. Super mint condition! I have never seen another ball in a color like this. Very rare!
These were used in wild west shows and shooting events in the mid to late 1800's. Used before clay pigeons, a similar type holder was used to throw the ball. They were filled with feathers or paper so the shooter and audience knew when the ball was hit.
This ball is empty. As one can only imagine, not very many of these are left to collect . $300.00
