jdchess Posted December 10, 2020 Report Share Posted December 10, 2020 I have a small box of marbles that were my father's. He told me he had most of them since he was a child. I have no idea if they were older than him and were given to him or if they were purchased new when he was a kid. He was born in 1948, so I imagine most of them are from the early to mid 50's. Any help would be appreciated. I can take closer pics if necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'llhavethat1 Posted December 10, 2020 Report Share Posted December 10, 2020 Sounds about right. Majority look like cateyes, which some people collect more than I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdchess Posted December 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2020 One thing that I wanted to add is that someone on another forum mentioned that they looked damaged, but it's the flash in the pic that caused shadows on the bubbles in the glass I think. They don't seem to have much damage really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'llhavethat1 Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Peltier marbles share the trait of a bubbly clear base on certain examples. Bogard (and others) also. Welcome to the site by the way! A lot of knowledgeable members here I'm sure can chime in to narrow things down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'llhavethat1 Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 @Steph what are your thoughts on these? Single color, bubbly base glass (which already looked to me that way from the first pics). Pelt Bananas? I don't know much about these but would love to see some other pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
