Marble Fun

A traditional target game. The target is a wall with five arches. The arches are worth points if you can roll one of your marbles into the opening. The scores 'on the doors' seems arbitrary; they are, from left to right, 7, 8, 5, 10, 3 . Above each arch is an animal; An elephant, a lion, a sea lion, a tiger, and an ape. The illustrations, that give the game some character, are by English illustrator, Kenneth Townsend (1931 - 1999). The first player to reach a pre-agreed total, wins.
