Cool 😎!!

It's nice to meet you! Can I share my acquired box?

I've not seen that one.

Akro made some great marbles

X3, agree w/ Pelt

I was just thinking about him. Sorting books and found a Ravenswood booklet he coauthored.

Imperial was my first thought.

Welcome. Interesting focus.

Mike Johnson, born in the mid-50s has spent His whole life and career on the Central Coast of California. He taught various subjects including Math and History in both Public Schools and the State Prison system. As a historian and researcher he has co authored six books on marble history. For 38 years Mr.Johnson has been selling Marbles at SUNSET DRIVE INN @ the same spot, spot # E3o. The drive-in opens at 4:30 for vendors. During this time he made many friends, given marbles away and sold marbles for almost nothing. He will be miss Mr Mike Johnson. Thank you Mike for all the happy thoughts & joy you brought to our children. Now retired from the swap meet in SLO (San Luis Obispo), you can still find marbles very close to where Mike use to be.

Hit 2X on your phone camera. It might help. It’s all I use 🔥 RAR

Can't show a pic as I have to backlight using the camera phone. Opaque looks dark green with filaments on the edge. Closer to the surface of the marble than the center. Looks to me as it was intentional. There is also a thin filament that runs thru the marble middle.

Here is my Yasuda/Japanese collection so far.

Thank you so much!

"Welcome to Marble Connection" Anxious to see your mibs, post away !!! Again, "Welcome"

Hello everybody! I have been a collector for a few years now (I've been on All About Marbles for a while too). My main area of collecting has been Japanese transitionals/Yasuda marbles.

Hey Shawn ! How is your Dad 🔥 RAR

It's cool. Can you post some backlit pics🔥 RAR

Cool. There are a few specialized collectors here into big Onionskins

An unintentional core probably from contamination or (more likely in this case) chemical reaction in the glass. For some reason oxblood red shows up in aqua glass sometimes so I'd look closer and see if that's the case here

Beautiful big OS ! 🔥 RAR
