Ok so I been doing some research of the logo that appears.
It's from the soccer club Huracán from Argentina.
It was founded in 1908...
So like Steph said, that the cheap ones started to be produced in this lasts 40 years, and the club its older than that. There might be a possibility of it being an original product of the club in a way to promote the team???
Just a theory I had...
Because I don't think that they would do this kind of promotion with marbles in the resent years. Mostly because in my opinion, it wouldn't much appeal to the audience.
I know that marbles are for everyone, but it's mostly focused for children entertainment. That's how I played with my cousins back then, we would go to a plaza, play on the dirt with the marbles and have a good time.
But that's what I think. I might be completely wrong tho... You guys know much more than me ^^
