Hello all...

It has been a FUN summer hunting marbles in the creek!

Here is one I can't put a makers name on. It is a beautiful corkscrew wit a clear base glass.

Is it maybe an early Vacor or maybe a Japanese made marble?

All the marbles in this creek are 1950s and older.

it has a little bit of creek rash but it is FULL of bubbles!

Thanks for looking everyone!

I hunt for marbles in a local creek that runs through an area where there was a large garbage dump at one time. It appears the dumping was 1930s - 1940s.

This creek is full of broken glass and bottles.... and....occasionally a few marbles.

Shoot we would love to find an old dump site here. I know there has to be one. 
 

 

Linda, I’ve received a few leads on dumping grounds from asking older guys I work with where they used to dump before garbage pickup was the norm. Dead end roads, in the woods and along creeks. 
 

nice job Mikie! How many have you found in the creeks?
