I just came across the same master box last weekend at an antique store but they wanted way too much for it, but they had a nice original alley box for a fair price so I went with that instead.

Ric Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 I find the bird-like surface patch over the clear on this particular marble interesting. Especially, in light of this post I made earlier in the ID section. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mibcapper Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 not many # 10's held up because of all the marbles in box. # 5 is newer version. ... bill 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The #5's that I have say Master Glass Co on the edge. I have read that the new company copied the #10 which had the original company name on them and made the #5 to look the same only smaller.

Berryb Posted August 25, 2021 Report Share Posted August 25, 2021 I like the ones with the wisps that go thru the center as well as the surface. Thanks Bruce 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted August 25, 2021 Report Share Posted August 25, 2021 That No. 10 is a difficult one to find for sure. They remind me of the Heaton box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akroorka Posted August 25, 2021 Report Share Posted August 25, 2021 Here is an image of a smaller Heaton box that is in reconstuction mode vs a #5 Master Glass flat--(unused) They are pretty close but the Heaton is a tad larger. Marble--On!! and box reconstruction on as well!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted August 25, 2021 Report Share Posted August 25, 2021 Nice side-by-side. I want to say that Heaton also had a box similar to the MM #10. @mibcapper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted August 26, 2021 Report Share Posted August 26, 2021 I think that wvrons may have a bigger one, maybe he will follow up with his own side by side---I hope to see it anyhow. Marble--On!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akro75 Posted August 26, 2021 Report Share Posted August 26, 2021 My little Master corner of boxes etc.. The World's fair box absolutely mint, filled with cloudies, clearies, brushed patches. The game set is different from other ones I see, does not have the smaller boxes inside. This box dimensions are smaller. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvrons Posted August 26, 2021 Report Share Posted August 26, 2021 Alley never boxed any of his marbles or put his name on any package. Not many box sets with Alley marbles. The small box with three marbles which says Marbles and opposite side Allies. Different Allies and Alley, Allies means marbles. That is the one Ric is talking about. There is another box set with Alley marbles. It is larger and holds 20 or 25 one inch and larger Alley white base swirls. It is marked Big Shot Marbles. It is rare, I know of two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
