richsantaclaus Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 Anybody want to come over and play? Here is my collection in a lamp that I have from my 6th grade time when I was the marble champ at my school. Let me see...... 62-10 = 52 years ago! I had these in tin cans (remember them) for years before i was old enough to have the money to buy the lamp. It was full of sea shells before I altered it when I was 25 and made it into my marble lamp. I am guessing it weighs around 50 pounds and is solidly full of all the winnings from back then. I have the principal's shooter + his marbles, other teacher's marbles and especially Sue's shooter and her marbles as she was my closest competitor! Ahhhh, the good old days!

I can't tell what's in there on my screen. I agree about it looking like a fun group. Is that a little Santa in the lower right corner? :-) Felicia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
