Ric Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 Here's a game I've shown before. It was released just in time for the 4th of July in 1891 - only ~25 years after the Civil War ended. It was missing the 'cue' and marbles. I have not seen another like it. The object is to use the cue to move the four balls up out of the pit and into the four corner 'pockets'. I think the cue was just a short little stick. It might have rested in opposing pockets for storage. It's fun and a bit harder than you might think, since the conical shape of the pit keeps the mibs running away from you.

Steph Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 ONE DAY someone is going to come up with a complete set so we can be sure of what that cue looked like. Gotta happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
