This is just my opinion--
The boxes are quite common “jobber” or resellers boxes. “Jobbers” are folks that buy marbles from a variety of makers and resell them as their own or under their own brand name.
The ones that are marked "Victory Marbles" are an early fake--these were more than likely made by someone who intended to deceive collectors a long time gone.
I suggest that they were made prior to the USA bicentennial (1976) to attract buyers.
There have been a bunch of marbles found in boxes of this type but these are the most common to be found. RWB Vitro marbles.
A fake box that is old enough to be a collectable.
I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more.
Marble—On!
