Ric Posted June 21 Report Share Posted June 21 Master Made Marbles was the original Master (1931) and Master Glass came after a 1941 reorganization and move. The quality of the earlier ones is noticeably better than the later ones. The cat's Eyes are Master Glass and the nicest Sunbursts are Master Made. Beyond the the general quality and the fact that more recycled and cheaper glass was used in the Master Glass marbles, I think the structure is pretty much the same, but I'm sure Art will have more to say about it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted June 21 Author Report Share Posted June 21 Thanks Ric. I was wondering if it had something to do with the production dates. I just didn’t know who made the best of what and when🔥 RAR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The earlier Masters were just that--Master Made. Hard to find damage even when used----One of the best glass marbles ever made for play imho. They just stood up very well against the stone/agate marbles that they were designed to compete with. Marble--On!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a rare one when it comes to these--I like looking and searching always for a few--and I mean a few--good Master Glass Cats. Some are just killer--most are just ugh🙈. The last vintage USA glass Maker to try to compete with Japan before foldling..Lets not forget Vitro though. Marble--On!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
