Description

This auction pictured is for : Lot C
What a unique find at an estate sale . Here is the background story of the 2 Five Gallon bottles full of marbles .
Her husband was a furnace repair / maintenance man from the late 1969’s for about 15 years . He found these marbles in the furnace registers, ducts and in the furnace. He repaired furnaces as old as the early 1900’s through the 1960’s- 70’s . His wife told me he would bring home the marbles and drop them in the water bottle filling two of them over the years . Over 130 pounds of marbles .
I am selling them in 5 pound pours. I counted a few lots and on average you will get 460-475 (count is approximate , its the weight you will get 5 pounds) marbles per lot . I am doing no sorting or picking through them at all . I am pouring out 5 pounds at a time . Rolling them out on a white towel for several pictures . I rolled out some of the larger ones in each lot to the corner for one of the pictures. Then I put them in a bubble bag for shipping. The first 5 pounds out are lot A and so on . You will get everything you see in each lot group of pictures.
Condition: they are used marbles that some kids / adults played with 40 plus years ago . Since they were found in furnace ducts etc , they could use a cleaning / washing . Look at the pics . No color filters used , just good bright lighting.
Sold AS IS . Please look over the pictures. The vast majority are glass marbles . I have seen some steel ones , very rarely a ceramic one. You will have fun going through this fantastic collection.
All sales final , sold as is . No returns / refunds .
Shipping : one 5 pound bag ships for .95
