These were found last week at an auction. Steal of a deal for all these, pennies on the dollar. The games both work now. I was able to take apart the Lone Ranger ball bearing game and fix it. The cardboard had gotten bent and would except the balls properly so I ripped into it and adjusted everything plus cleaned the glass. Good as new now, almost! The Bagatel game needs some help too but I will tackle it soon. It plays like an early pinball game. I also need to find a new piece of glass for it cause it some breaks in it. I can date the Lone Ranger game to the late 30s to early 40s but not sure on the Bagatel game, any guesses? Popeye pencil is like a Big Chief except it has the retractable lead. Pretty cool but not hard to find really. The Eagle Pencil Company released these to the public in the 1930s for sale.
