AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

These 3 marble games are mainly suitable for decoration, although all of them are functional.

The large one, named 'Sial', dates from the 1930s and was made by Homas from Assen, Netherlands.
The game is missing a few pegs in the playing field.

Also the smaller one (25x50 cm) with the Indian motif comes from Homas and is probably from the 1960s judging by the hardboard bottom. The paint is peeling here and there, which is common for this type if you search further online.

Not much is known about the third example with the fez-wearing men. It was probably made around the 1950s, given the wooden bottom. The lid of the storage compartment is still present. However, the game has a curvature, as seen in the last photo. This is likely due to sun exposure on the wood.

The games are securely packed and insured for shipping. Please also take a look at my other listings for more marble games to ship together.
