Wonderful Antique Handmade 65 Hole Marble Solitaire Gameboard with Clay Marbles unique gft There is a black labelI always have an eye out for marbles solitaire gameboards, which I particularly love for the fact that you can play alone, anytime, plus for the fact that they are a great way to display and put beautiful old clay marbles to use.
