Here are a couple of Dazzlers boxes. Only the Giant Dazzlers appear to be labelled as Codeg brand. Both boxes are from Block auctions.

Auction description for the giant dazzlers:

Original package. Rare English marble package. Cardboard sleeve. "6 Giant Dazzlers" "Monster Size Coloured Glass Marbles". Codeg brand. Contains six 15/16" Wire Pulls. Circa 1950s. Rare. 5-3/4" long.

A solitaire game, from another eBay auction. Don't know whose. And I don't know what it said about where the marbles were made.

And there are bunches and bunches of Codeg examples here with a lot of discussion: Made In England?

Man I still can't get over how beautiful some of the Veiligglas is, wonder why it never caught on here ?? And these aren't even the opaques "Killer" mibs Ric

I agree that Veiligglas made some great marbles. My bet is that they simply were not marketed over here so most kids didn't have a chance to own them. But can you imagine the reaction of an American kid who was lucky enough to get a box like this as a gift from a relative living in Europe or maybe a parent returning from an overseas trip? I'll bet they became the talk of the town!
