davesnothere Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 It's taken awhile but I've peiced together some sought after flat finish imperial boulders and 5/8 It seems the dull finish was normal on the earlier imperials. I've peiced this together one by one so it's not a bad run. Would love to see more flat finish imperials. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davesnothere Posted June 20 Author Report Share Posted June 20 In general they have some intriguing light pastel colors, which is interesting on the chalk white base. The wavey streams give them a funky vibe . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The name “Imperial” was a conglomerate on the west coast of the USA. They never made their own marbles. They did market marbles--from all over the Asian countries--many of them--just many-many from different machines and different companies. A group of these may be from the same manufacturer —not always imho. The larger ones do appear to be a larger Imperial types—very cool imho. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble—On!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
