This ball has a smooth exterior surface to which is applied a surface layer or layers of fabric, indicated at 4. The fabric may cover more or less of the surface of'the ball, but in the embodiment shown, is in the form of an ornament, such as a star. The fabric is applied to the article while the latter is in an 'unvulcanized condition and during vulcanization becomes embedded in the surface and integrally united therewith. 1 prefor to apply two fabric ornaments 0n diametrically opposite sides of the. ball.
Having thus described my invention. what I claim is:
