1920's-30's "You Shoot" Marble Bullseyes Game

[browncat73]

I lucked up on this a few days ago on a blind auction bid for a small box with mostly junk for ten bucks. The game was complete including the Mibs. It looks like the company was based out of NJ and sourced their MiBs from Christensen. They look like a mix of moons, white swirls and light blue swirls. The game is in incredible shape I can't believe it for how old it is.

Thanks @Chad G. Do people collect marble games? I'm in it for the mibs id rather sell or trade for more marbles. Just curious if there was a market for these.

  This game kinda clears up my curiosity about the shape of some marbles. Even if you missed the bullseye you would still hit the METAL frame. Shooting at other marbles you were hitting an object that was the same size and weight. This thing didn’t move. LOL. My dad said some times he and his friends could hit marbles so hard you couldn’t find them especially if you were playing close to grass. My dad is gone now and Ive talked to some of his childhood buddies about marbles and they said you didn’t want to play with Ray, he’d clean you out every time. Love ya Dad.
