Restored a vintage marble bowling game.

Let me know if you have any info. I found it at a garage sale for 10$. It didn’t have any makers marks. I’m guessing it’s from the 50’s or 60’s judging by the hardware on it. I replaced a pin, the handle, and all the strings. It was missing the back panel so I gave it a solid oak base instead. New coat of paint and polly and it’s good as new.

My first marble...What did I find?

I found this in the lake at the old family home in the Kawartha Lakes, Ontario. I would love to know if a relative date would be figured out for it, since it would be cool to know what generation lost it in there!

Found a marble while tilling.

I know nothing about marbles but I was wondering if anyone could tell me anything about this one. It looks black but when you shine a light on it, it appears pink.

Inherited from great great aunt about 20 years ago. Not really sure about it other than that. Thoughts?

Having a garage sale this weekend can anyone meet up to help me go through a marble collection?

I have inherited a large collection of marbles and I’m pretty unfamiliar with what makes them valuable, I will give you some if you help me bag them for a garage sale.. most are from the 20’s and some vintage….. I am generally good at antiques but this is not my forte. Thank you in advance

Disc golf finds

For some reason, I have been finding marbles on one specific hole in a disc golf course I regularly play. The course is in the middle of the forest in the mountains, so I'm not sure why I'm finding so many marbles here. Most of them are clear, but I have found a couple of different ones! I've even found some shards of marbles.

I've been wondering why I'm finding so many marbles here. I'm not aware of any marble use in disc golf but hey who knows!

Now every time I go to this course, my eyes are glued to the ground the whole time. Their marble loss is my marble gain. ☺️☺️

Help me identify patches + swirls

I’m looking for some help identifying a big batch of marbles I bought, these are ones that caught my eye the most. All glow under UV. Each marble has 3 images taken of it.

1st Marble: Patch, images include the seams. Super unique opaque teal color. 5/8ths of an inch.

2nd Marble: Swirl, unsure if I was able to capture the seams or not. 5/8ths of an inch.

3rd Marble: Patch, images include seams. Reminds me of how some Master marbles are made. 43/64ths of an inch.

4th Marble: Patch, images include seams. 5/8ths of an inch.

5th Marble: Patch? (I think). Images include seams. The semi opaque green with red was really striking to me. 19/32nds of an inch.
