TROPHY KINGS
Date: ca. 1940s
Joe Wilman (left) and Joe Hein admired an impressive display of trophies won by the Monarch Beer men’s bowling team from 1938 to 1947. The sheer number of trophies speaks to the team’s dominance over nearly a decade of competition. Wilman, a United States Bowling Congress (USBC) Hall of Famer, was a driving force behind these victories, contributing to the team’s legacy in the sport. This collection of awards reflects Monarch Beer’s commitment to excellence on the lanes and the team’s lasting impact on competitive bowling.
