Post Your Marble Displays/Collections.

[PittsburghMarbles]

I just bought another shelf today, still need to buy another shelf to display all of my marbles. I have every marble company in the americas represented to the modern day, however I don’t have my CACs or vintage Vacors out yet. I also have a large collection of pre WW2 Japanese, antique Germans and most well known vintage European machine made marbles, lots of those are still boxed. I knew nothing about marbles 2 years ago but ever since I started to learn about them in 2019 I’ve been obsessed and have met many who are important in the marble community since I live only an hour away from WV and an hour from the earliest marble companies in the Akron/Canton region. 
 

Then I have to buy about 6 more shelves to properly display my antique bottle and general glass collection in our finished basement. I also need to buy some proper lighting. Eventually I want to buy lots of fancy museum grade glass displays but they are so expensive, like thousands each… 
 

Anyways, post your collection and displays for them. I just moved a few weeks ago so most of my stuff is still in boxes. And each week I add more and more marbles to my collection so it’s a never ending process of rearranging and the need for more shelving.   Here’s my shelved collection as of now. My whole room is still full of antiques that I have yet to display properly. And we just got a dog so I can’t really take anything else out yet that’s boxed because she’ll eat it and or jump on it. On a side note, shelf is a strange word…

Since I made that post I put out about half of my alleys and alley slag. Still have to find the other half that’s boxed away. 
 

And here’s our Lab puppy that’s ready to eat any marbles within her reach.. although she’s fairly well trained at this point to leave it upon command wherein there’s something she shouldn’t chomp on.

I moved this collection a couple times, some of them have found new homes between now and then but that's how I had them set up at my old place

 I do not have any really large marble displays. I do display any Akro Agate that I come across in a variety of ways. These qualify in my world.

 A large sugar bowl and a small sugar bowl---they sure had a bigger sweet tooth in the past than I ever did. More than likely found in the great “greasy spoon” restaurants of the past rather than the home environment.

5 ¾” and 4 ¾” across the top of the chrome, notice the spoon slots---they are very heavy---unmarked.

 I sort my beat up corkscrews in the big one and Oxblood, Sparklers and Popeye’s in the smaller one. They are unmarked and definitely Akro Agate Ware.

I love this stuff and use it whenever I can to highlight my Akro scores.

Akro -- on and Marble---On for sure!!!

Here are my two Marble pals, Sluggo and Luigi. Sluggo—the tan one, has been known to find any marble that I drop—I really have to watch because I am an oaf when it comes to handling marbles. Luigi is just the loyal “always there” dog that anyone would love.

Marble—On!! and “Marble pal” on as well!!!
