c. 1930 unmarked ball appears to be solid rubber that is about as dead as a golf ball as can be. When dropped from 6-inches above a table, this ball lands hard, bounces once, and its done. Kind of amazing, actually, because its complete lack of resilience is so unexpected.

Condition as shown in the images.
