    If they have eyes they are Flinties. IMHO. Yes some were sold as game marbles and some do not have eyes. Peace,Galen

    my first thought would be most marbles were being sold to boys so the makers wouldn't expect pink to be a real big seller. Peace,Galen

    It should also be known that items besides marbles have been found in these type boxes. Peace,Galen

    Just remember, All the books contain some information not necessarily based on factual evidence. The earlier ones were almost all assumption and hearsay. Peace,Galen

    American Machine-Made Marbles by Six, Metzler, and Johnson is the best I have seen. Peace,Galen

    That quote from Antique Digest seems about as accurate as the early marble articles. It calls mica a metal and says metal flakes are added????Both very inaccurate statements. Someone didn't do their research. Peace,Galen

    Names really only seem to mean a lot on the Internet and Ebay. Never seen anyone at a show argueing what a marble is called. The best stand on what they look like not what silly name someone made up for them . Unless your a Pelt collecter(LOL) . Peace,Galen

    Vacor was only making cateyes(and very poor ones) in 1955 besides clearies industrials and solids. They were extremely rough marbles and nothing like the ones pictured. And I do not see in any way how those marbles pictured are machinemade. The Czech corks Are actually made like the bulletmolds. 2 halves put together. Peace,Galen

    They made beads continuously over the last thousand+ years. Why couldnt the bead makers have turned out some marbles 50 years ago. Marbles were extremely popular in the early 50s. Those really do look handmade. I wonder what the ends look like? Peace,Galen

    They actually look like very early contemps. Peace,Galen

    I think some of the earlier marble books used that info as a source(LOL) Peace,Galen

    Why are we assuming there were peewees in Rosenthal boxes. I have seen many and they all have had 0-00 size marbles. Those boxes have the same layout and size as the one I pictured do they not. Or am I missing something? Peace,Galen

    I measured the inside(bottom section). the top is 7 3/8" across. The smallest marble in the box is a hair over 9/16" the largest is a hair under 11/16" most are a hair over 5/8" Peace,Galen

    Just a similar box, Look again at the name. Peace,Galen

    Most Rosenthalls have Master marbles in them. Here is a similar 7 inch box. 5/8'marbles Peace,Galen

    One conection may be that Sellers Peltier owned a large part of Marble King. Peace,Galen

    Refilled game box IMHO. I have seen them marked other colors and they were game marbles. Great box though!!! Peace,Galen

    The cardinel red corks and slags can be found in the same boxes. I would guess 1930-31 for the corkscrews. Peace,Galen
