A question about a couple balls
 
I’m curious what the two balls are and age. Just have the Feeney ball there for comparison.

Pretty sure the one is a softball and the other is maybe indoor baseball or stick ball?

The "Boys Professional" I believe is a No. 5B from Spalding. Advertised as a "junior size ball". Introduced in the late 1880s.

The other is just an older style softball

Yep, called the "Clincher" I believe. No real value in that one, even in new, unused shape.

Yep that’s it. Never heard of them. Did a quick look online and that exactly what the softball is.

Thanks

I can’t seem to find info on those online. I didn’t look real hard yet though. Wonder how old this one is.
