I don't know what the rule was just before they added the three point shot/line, but I definitely remember positioning myself below the free throw line during free throws. I don't remember if I had to be six feet from the lane, or if there was a limit, but I could go all the way to the baseline.

All I am going to add to this discussion is I remember Lack of Sufficient Action and how the frontcourt was divided into midcourt and forecourt areas.

And let's not forget that the lane was much narrower, and most of the FT technique was underhanded.
I'm still waiting for someone to tell us they remember when dribbling wasn't allowed.

I do recall something about unmarked lane spaces around the top of the circle as well.
