  1. Looks Alley to me but let’s see what others think.
  2. That’s the way I get rid of “wounded” marbles, Imperials and other common marbles. We have a booth in an antique mall and it helps recoup some of the investment when you are forced to buy marbles you don’t want in order to get marbles you do. I sell jars for $30-40 and they don’t usually last too long.
  3. I personally don’t see anything that carries much value in the jar. All appear relatively new.
  4. Goes to show you have to have a healthy skepticism when people tell you what they know about an item for sale. People get confused, outright lie or forget details all the time.
  5. Despite the provenance, they seem like Imperials to me.
  6. Even if it is a blue galaxy, that doesn’t mean it’s mint, which significantly affects the price. Lots of clays and wounded warriors. He seems to think many of the marbles are more valuable than they really are. Lots of marbles with damage and he keeps dropping marbles onto a glass tray without concerns for damaging them. I wouldn’t touch this with a ten foot pole personally. Also polished a bunch, he said.
  7. There’s a video review of the “good stuff” available but spending nearly 5K and not having it in hand is playing Russian roulette with more than one chamber loaded.

    Master ?

    Agree with Akro. Seams not consistent with Master and eye lashes seen more with Akro.

    Beautiful Sparkler!
  10. Thank you, Art. I bought this box 20+ years ago and it has the same cover as yours. Do you anything more about this box?
  11. I’m thinking Ravenswood.
