As a New England native, I'm ashamed to admit that outside of television and movies, I had never seen tenpin until I went to college. I rationalized it as some kind of Hollywood in-joke, rather than a real thing.
Nowadays, bowling alleys in the area probably skew two-thirds tenpin, one-third candlepin. Luckily there is a candlepin alley about two blocks away.
