Peltier--no doubt.
Peltier marbles were made in Illinois, Ottawa to be specific. They were very successful using what they had in the back yard.
I will appreciate any other info as to what the Ottowa plant had in its back yard and why a glass plant was located there.
Most marble companies were located in either WV or Ohio because of the abundance of nice working minerals and the major resource of natural gas to fire the furnaces that melted the glass.
Marble—On!!

Right on, thanks.

 

...yes i've always found the history of the marble companies interesting. The depth of involvement one way or another between them all. I can't say i've heard that happen in any other business.
