    Hi all. My friend just brought over these marbles to me and even tho I love marbles, I don't know them by name.

    I have just found a site that does I.D. them but confuses me more than I was! I know, not hard to do right?! (jk)

    There are at least 290 total.

    I thought I'd post them like this, then sort them out a bit and redo the photos or just make another post.

    If there are any that you know, would you mind letting me know what name they go under. I don't think there are really any WOW ones, but I don't know that for sure.

    Thanks for you help!
    Sue

      share, about a year ago I went through a pile of marbles myself. I googled what to look for in vintage marbles and got one or two good sites that made it fairly easy to sort out which ones might be interesting to a collector. There are a few collectors that have posted on here which is what sparked my interest, they may be able to spot some good ones in your photos. Good luck! :)

      Hi katherine, thank you for the info. I know I've posted a few marbles before, but those were just my old one from when I was a kid...not handmade like I think some of these are. Let's see what's in store...
    7. shareurpassion shareurpassion, 9 years ago
      No walks. I haven't checked. Is there a special place to get those? Every time I go to the big box store to get something, I check and either I have a bulb that won't fit in my lamp or I can't find a bulb at all. They have to be the florescent ones right?

      So far, I don't have one that goes with the other.

      Thank you Elisabethan for the nice comment...I think the colors are pretty cool too. I am thinking that the iridescent ones are new, those are actually real pretty too.

      Hi Virginia, yes, these bring back lots of good memories for me from playing marbles in school. I always had a long sock over my shoulder full!!!

      You can get small hand held fluorescent blacklight units on Amazon.
      great to carry with you when shopping.

      Thanks walks, I'll do that there. Great idea to carry with too. I'll put it right next to my jewelers loupe ;)

      Hi shareurpassion. Cool. I have a few marbles but no where this many. How funny the marble site confusing you more. I can imagine it being complicated with the different shaped swirls etc.

      I keep looking for old Chinese checkers games in the GW's, but have never had any luck. All I know is I want a Akro Agate game and it's marbles. I think you have some Akro Agate marbles there if I'm not mistakin.
