elvisgrl63 Posted April 10, 2017 Report Share Posted April 10, 2017 I got these from a woman who is 89 yrs old and these marbles belonged to her father, she wants me to sell them for her, and I have named a few but just want to be certain. I'm asking your community being the experts to help me make sure I don't mislabel these oldies. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted April 10, 2017 Report Share Posted April 10, 2017 Welcome. There are some nice old marbles there. It would be helpful to make a separate thread for each group. That's less confusing and has a better chance of getting more people popping in to help out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted April 10, 2017 Report Share Posted April 10, 2017 For instance, these are slags, but even though that looks like an easy answer, the discussion could branch out into which company made them, or whether any are handgathered. Or you might want to ask about some other marble which looks similar to them, but which turns out not to be slag after all. Or maybe you'll have a group of four marbles and three of them will be easy, but the fourth will be hard. Different things can arise which complicate ID's. So that's why a new thread for each group is best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budwas Posted April 10, 2017 Report Share Posted April 10, 2017 Elvisgrl. I really like the Indians (black with colored stripes) would love to add them to my collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sclsu Posted April 11, 2017 Report Share Posted April 11, 2017 Lots of nice marbles. Condition would play a big factor in terms of value. I see a few that would have had some value if they weren't so rough. Definitely worth the time to learn what you have before selling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
