Got the board today in the mail, from the above post I made. Some absolute stunners. You still can find some amazing deals on eBay; just have to search like crazy. All of these are mint. I think my favorite ones are the end of day ribbon that I’m holding and the end of single pontil cloudy end of day with a whispy tail. The seller seemed to think that the board was worth the most from the posting and didn’t seem to know what they had really. Those are the best. 

The only one that didn’t come with the board is the really colorful red, blue and yellow 4 paneled one on the left side of the board, got it at the canton show a few weeks ago.

Colorado is a Dry Marble State. I finally scored today on some marbles and some Funky Monkey stuff. The antique story that had the 1937 knuckle down magazine wasn’t there anymore. Oh well. 🔥

Man, I’ve been getting really lucky as of late. Found an antique store that was going out of business and they let me look through loads of jars of marbles and I got the jars dirt cheap. Just started looking through them and there’s already some great marbles.

Well I live in Minnesota and work in Wisconsin. I’m literally right on the border of both states. Fortunately I’m not a sports fan. ;)

Found these recently, and I believe they date from around 1932-1931. Note in the 3rd photo that even in the early 30s they were selling German handmades. Possibly leftover stock from the WW1 era or maybe the assumption that most German handmade production ended around 1920 is incorrect and possibly it was continued until the 1930s.
 

Think you have to click on my photos to actually see the full resolution photos. 
 

I assume these were from catalogues for wholesale toy sellers.
