akroorka Posted August 25 Report Share Posted August 25 @shiroaiko has posted some like this lately. These usually show up in an "Imperial box" in the USA. I think that you are right on. Marble--On!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiroaiko Posted August 26 Report Share Posted August 26 @akroorka do you have an example of Imperial package that holds Japanese marbles of this type? I'm curious to see one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted August 26 Report Share Posted August 26 If you can search E-bay in Japan--you will find them my marble collecting friend. Imperial packaging is all over the place. Dairiseki--On!! (I hope that I got this right)😁. Marble--On is what I mean to say here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiroaiko Posted August 28 Report Share Posted August 28 I have two European marble friends who grew up with Imperial marbles and still love them today. Some Seike marbles might look like like the one found in Imperial packages, but they are not quite the same. When I showed Seike's patch/ribbons to my friends, they told me they never seen those before. As for myself, I haven't come across Seike marbles in an Imperial package. Dairiseki is close, and thank you. 😊 It is a kind of rock. Bii-dama is the common wording for marbles, so Bii-dama--On! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shiroaiko Posted 9 hours ago Report Share Posted 9 hours ago This Seike's ribbon/patch marble was found by a local beachcomber a few days ago. The photo is by mimitutu424 on Instagram. A Mercari listing that sold out within minutes earlier today. Who was the lucky person? One of my SNS followers kindly let me know about it but I was too late to grab it. The seller ニコ is the same person who previously shared Rupert the Chick Picture Puzzle information that held Seike transitionals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
