I saw that and started to want to google Maxwell Jackson, but then got distracted and didn't return. I think watches were given to the champs in the famous 1922 rivalry which spurred the creation of the National Marble Tournament.

P.s., I do have a story of a real marble heist somewhere -- from the 1930's I believe -- from the California Agate Co., or the California Onyx Co. as I think it was called at the time. Gotta hunt up the newspaper clipping.
