Just showing off :)

Found three more today at a home site dump so I thought I'd share my growing collection. All are over 60-80 years old, the dump dates to the 1930s and before.





I'm not really sure what that blue thing is at the top. It is glass, but beyond that I'm clueless.

There are no markings on it whatsoever.

Don't take my word on any of this, but that looks to be fitting for the size of a marble. So maybe a shooting position for a game varient of marbles. Maybe a target. Or maybe completely unrelated.

I figure it has to be from some sort of game, but I think it's too small for tiddlywinks and beyond that I am clueless. Even my grandparents didn't know, and they're 80 this year.
