ShaneMac304 Posted May 17, 2021 Report Share Posted May 17, 2021 Jar has been buried for minimum 30+ years. Property owner died in the 1980"s-90's. Have no clue about marbles. The milk jug looked to be from 50-60's?? Hoping someone may be able to help...... Can post more photos if needed. These were the better looking marbles. More not pictured. Thanks so much!

Ric Posted May 18, 2021 Report Share Posted May 18, 2021 That's a cool find. They look vintage to me.- Vitro, Peltier, Alley, etc. Some of them appear to be egg-shaped or out of round. Are they? Or is it just me? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaneMac304 Posted May 18, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2021 Yes, a lot are out of round. Just got the micrometer yesterday. There are just so many😂😂😂 Any input is greatly appreciated!

Steph Posted May 18, 2021 Report Share Posted May 18, 2021 I'm wondering if some of the egg shapes we are seeing in the picture are a camera illusion. I would get egg shapes on the edges of pictures when using the macro lens on my last camera. You have them in hand and you say some are out of round ... but I'm wondering if maybe not as much as they look in the pictures. Just a thought.
