    Hello Everyone!!!!!

    Can anyone tell me about these?

    $%28KGrHqR,!rEE88gWnFBHBPp1DjTGNw~~60_57

    I'll tell ya what I know.....

    Title

    Alley Agate Marble Factory Tools Akron Ohio Estate Find Antique Unique Vintage

    For sale is a pair of tools from the American Toy and Marble Manufacturing Co. I acquired the tools at an estate sale of a man from Akron Ohio who had acquired to tools from the factory. One Is 17" Long - Other Is 13 1/2" Long. I do not know their original use, one has some writting stamped in it but it is hard to make out.

    Then I got this as an email....

    Only info I have is what was passed to me when I purchased it. Was informed that these were picked from the rubble of the factory after a fire. The man who had found them had passed on but his family passed the story down to me.

    Okay, that's all I have. I can see that both are threaded at one end. So what did they screw into?

    Does anyone know if there are paten plans on these?

    Hope you all can shed some light on these.

    Thanks!!!!!

    Dear supermarbles,

    Hi. Those are some nice marbles you have.
    Do you have a photo of the carnival or invoice for the marbles from way back when..
    How many of these do you have left to sell? What kind of box did these come in?
    Do you have a group price for whatever you have left?
    History lost is history forgotten.
    Thanks so much for you time with this.

    Hello.These marbles stood for many years in a suitcase in our old house. Pictures of carnival shooting gallery I have but now live far away from that house 500 km and I can take them when you get there. I can not sell you of my marbles now, because I am a new member of eBay, and each new member has the limits of their sales. currently my limits are exhausted. I will again have higher limits after about 1 month and then I will put this in more eBay listings of some of my marbles. Please check in my listing after 09.01.2014. I WISH YOU HAPPY HOLIDAYS. Greetings NIKI

    Well, I hate to say it but I've bought a Golden Rebel..3/4", Clay about a year ago.

    Years ago, at the Columbus show there were some unsigned Peltier clays.

    Nothing really said clay to me, but my buddies kept saying it to me. ....he has the golden rebel now.

    Anyway he had a return policy, so I was 'going' to chance it.

    Hmmm, I'm in Ohio and can't see the link either.

    Did you see on the right side in the back ground on the shelves......

    on a side note, since I think my marbles are priceless, I'd hate to say they are in are part of a $$$$$ collection, don't want to put a cap on them and stereo type them..... LOL
