I stumbled upon these vintage Marbles magazine adds today. Forget that I had them and thought you might enjoy.

Love the old Marbles quality and style, especially the semi-skinner Woodcraft.

Thanks Warren!
Look at the prices; that was a walk down memory lane.

Warren--
I see the ads are from a magazine--Hunter, Trader, Trapper.
A friend long gone was the son of its editor.
Someplace I have a stickpin he gave me of a bird dog with a shotgun that the magazine gave to people who subscribed, and I think he said this was somehow related to their giving away Remington pocket knives.
There are fewer and fewer people around who remember those things.

Yes Larry you are correct. I bought these years ago as a package deal. I totally forgot about them until yesterday. Post a picture of that pin if you get a chance.
Tony, that is a great ad. Thanks for the reply.
