Hello Gregory, Martin and list,
Marlow is also a possible fall. Bob Mooney investigated a 1920 fireball that in his opinion left fragments in the region Marlow was later found. Here is an article he wrote on this bolide, which I placed on my website many months ago at his request.
While I am unsure of the weight of the 1987 find, Mooney has a photo of it on the following link that notes it as 150 pounds.

The 340gm refer to that stone, which was initially found in 1936, the main
mass of 100kgs was recovered in 1987.

Can anyone shed light on the TKW of the Marlow, Oklahoma meteorite? My NHM
database and Meteorites A-Z list the TKW at 340 grams, but I have a 171-gram
endpiece, which really does not visually appear to be "half" of the one 340g
stone that is listed as being found. Presumably more material has been
recovered, than is listed?

Gregory
