Sorry for not posting the size of my mibs earlier. Rookie mistake 🤣 The ones in the black box are anywhere from 31/32" to 1 5/32" The ones in the wood box are all under 3/4".

Wow! I guess it makes sense since Portland is a west coast city (there'd be a lot of trade with Japan). I see a few Japanese transitionals here and there since I am near Seattle.

I do hope this was helpful in some sort I know there was much more I could have done and will think about that the next time for the next process thank you again

Yes quite interesting information about the manipulation of marbles especially on the opaque ones some of the opaque ones with swirls that I tried to polish ended up coming out all white and for some reason a lot of the bubbles in the clearbase marble were being pulled out also to the surface I don't understand why but it happened and most of the clearbase ones I will post a few more and perhaps start another batch if I find any more badly damaged ones as I would call them.

so I was able to reach out to the gentleman I received this from he had purchased it almost a year ago or so from a fella out in Portland and that fella got it from another gentleman through Japanese import this was the only information I can obtain at the moment.

1-3/4”😢

You can really see how the pattern and look of the marbles change after manipulation. Good reference for polished marbles.

Thanks, Akroorka!

Thanks!

I’m going with Ravenswood

Akro slag x 2.

No, I have not seen one where Popeye is "cut off" at the waist. Similar bags show him walking but not a short Popeye character like this.

Agree with Akro versus MFC.

Hard to tell for sure from the pictures but I think it is a Ravenswood.
