sissydear Posted October 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 Molly Reecer Kimmell gave me the next two marbles. They are both flints made by people who have passed on. This one is a Bud Garrett flint. Mr. Garrett made his own marbles. This one is a Dumas Walker flint. All of the marbles shown in this post are in the neighborhood of 3/4 inch.

Steph Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 Amazing. A bridge between past and present. So cool to have stone marbles and know who made them. And they have so much personality. When you mentioned you had them I had no idea there would be such variety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sissydear Posted October 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 I have more that I had posted before. i have one made by Paul Moore who died last year and I have 3 made by Malcom Strong. One is the large one used in Tennessee Square. it's an inch and a quarter and the other two are flints in the neighborhood of 3/4 inch. When the marbles are specially made for a player, they are made to the size specified by the player. There is a range that they have to fall between. Molly shoots with a smaller marble than her husband Jeff, but the size is not far off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
