and three small green diamonds at the center of opposite sides

and makes me think it's time to get serious about actually playing marbles as well

with a lot of effort put into it

Cubes measure about 1 1/8" square

Young Girl with Early Alphabet Blocks, Earlyish 20th C. Paper Print Photo old object and three small green diamondsThis one I found digging through a box of photos at an antiques show in New Hampshire and just thought it quite a lovely photo, which I of course especially like for showing an early set of alphabet blocks! Pretty hard to turn away from this face, too, plus what an excellent bob. I also really like the shallow depth of field, situating this young girl very much in a world of her her own. 4 5 8" xs 3 1 2". Excellent condition. Printed on matte paper.
