Here is a photo of the Del Rosa Bowl located in San Bernardino, CA. This ten pin alley has undoubtedly been home to many 300 games. 04-05

The marquee fort he Del Rio Lanes looks simple yet functionally fits the mold of the other bowling alley marquees. It's captures attention from the road.

A rather googie looking bowling alley, the Mission Hills Bowl features multiple boomerangs with space age lunar holes.


Corbin Bowl

The marquee for the Corbin Bowl still sits high above Ventura Boulevard. Best of all, this marquee still lights up the night. Check out the neon version here.

Stop by La Puente Lanes for a few games of bowling. Shoot some pool or play a few video games while your there.

Unfortunately, La Puente Lanes is no longer a destination for ten pin alley thrill seekers as it was razed over in 2006. 12-06

The Westminster Lanes is still open for business. Though its marquee is not of the space age variety, it's still a classic sign for a classy alley.

Here's one of the marquees to the Canoga Park Bowl in Canoga Park, CA. Not sure if this bowling alley is still around. The huge sign could be seen for blocks. Check out the starbursts that decorate the sides of this marquee.

Here's a bowling alley that still appeared to do brisk business, even in the rain. The Bayshore Bowl is one of the last survivors of the ten pin alley heyday in Southern California and hopefully will remain.
