Im about 75% sure it is. It smells like pulling an old box of records out of your Grandparents attic...Sorry for the analogy...It also has what looks like a sun faded line on the top, which I attribute to actual sun wear. Its of a thick cardboard, not like the bristol boards used in the past few decades. If you have any other way for me to tell any type of era, that would be fantastic. It looks like the Spalding balls from the 20's and 30's, and at .20 -.50c per ball, I would say that it would be correct.
