akroorka Posted February 7 Report Share Posted February 7 I just received this bag of marbles. I have never seen this header before—“Challenger”. They are Pelt “Bananas” but the funny thing is that measured though the bag, which is quite thick, I figure these to be 9/16”. Measured through the bag, the ones that I measured are @ 5/8”including the plastic. 100 count Pelt Bananas—maybe the challenge is that they are “smaller”. I really do not know one way or the other. Just cool imho. ( I want to open them—really I do) @Al Oregon or @Chad G. or @cheese may have some great input here that I will appreciate. Give me whatever all of you all here on "The Marble Connection" can offer and it will be greatly appreciated. I appreciate all opinions and look forward to them all. Marble—On!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted February 7 Report Share Posted February 7 I saw one at an Ottawa show. The header was mint. They wanted $125. I offered $75 and he said no. I still have no idea if that would have been a good deal at $125🔥 RAR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheese Posted February 8 Report Share Posted February 8 That's a nice big full bag! I don't recall seeing the challenger name on one. Good find! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted February 8 Report Share Posted February 8 Cool find but was $125 in 2005 too much for a mint header and a clear bag🔥 RAR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Oregon Posted February 8 Report Share Posted February 8 I do not have that bag in my collection. I had to go through all my bag pics to make sure that I had not mixed up the "Champion" and "Challenger" names since they are a similar header. I did find two pictures that I had saved - one was same type of bag as the original post. The other was a smaller bag and had a "double ender" type of header. These were normally done on the cellophane bags that were, time-wise, in between the mesh and poly bags. Also, since this thread is kinda a "look what I found thread", I am throwing in this "Dinner Party" bag pic that I had saved. I do not have this bag in my collection. It is obviously a hard one to find. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
