A Pair of Huge Balls

What is interesting about this particular pair
of huge ball pictures (besides the really cute
starlets holding them ever so gently) is that
they certainly appear to be the same ball in
two different pinup photo sessions. Frances
Dee above was with Paramount and Simone
Simon below was with Fox, I think. So it's
probably not a studio photographer's ball.
I'm guessing that the Dee photo is very
early 1930s and the Simon picture is from
the mid-30s sometime. Just a guess. But
it look like the same ball. Lucky ball!
