Description

A Collection of Vintage and Traditional Glass Marbles, including Marble King Examples, with Game Components
A collection of vintage and traditional glass marbles, including examples attributed to Marble King. The lot comprises marbles housed in three glass jars, one larger plastic jar, a metal tin, and a fabric drawstring bag. The marbles are predominantly glass, exhibiting diverse sizes, colors, and patterns, with some appearing opaque and others translucent or swirled. The metal tin is marked “A game of MARBLES / TRADITIONAL GAMES,” and a cream fabric bag bears the text “MARBLE GAME / TRADITIONAL GAMES.” Accompanying these is a red painted wooden game piece shaped as a bridge, numbered 4, 3, 0, 1, 2 on its arches, along with an instruction sheet titled “TRADITIONELLE MURMELSPIELE” (Traditional Marble Games), further detailing “Das Murmelspiel „Brückenbogen“ – So geht’s!” (The Marble Game “Bridge Arch” – How it works!) and “Mindestens 2 Spieler” (At least 2 Players). A set of pastel-colored opaque marbles is associated with this bridge game. The collection represents a mix of contemporary or traditional-style sets and general collected marbles.
