This is one of a handful of rare Agate Agate marbles salesman sample cases. This item was most likely built and assembled in the 1920’s for the Akro Agate Company’s salesman sample force and was documented here from the Ray Mordan collection.
Ray walks us through a tour of the case, showcasing the marbles models on display and several other vintage collectable Akro Agate box sets and gift sets.
