2 The
3 Where they come across “Some Lady” and club President Beth Morris.
4 Greg Morris keeping an eye on things
4 George Sourlis, Jake & Rick hanging out.
5 George Sourlis makes some really cool posters, these posters show marble boxes and
Timelines of when they were manufactured. If anyone is interested George sells these at very reasonable prices.
6 More posters.
7 One more poster picture.
9 Marble nut Lonnie Conyers, caught here sleepwalking around the hotel lobby.
10 Lonnie after he woke up, looks kind of grumpy.
Thanks again Lonnie for the
11 Another marble nut, Bud Shute. He usually keeps a better eye on Lonnie but he dropped the ball on this one.
12 A couple of marble collectors checking out Bob Murphy’s marbles.
13 Bull Shooter extraordinaire, Art Jones seen here surfing the net in the hotel lobby.
14 Arts ribbon proving that he is the best Bull Shooter around. Art told me that 1968 was when he peaked but I can testify that he is still a remarkable Bull Shooter.
15 Ron Yutzy and a big necklace made from marbles. Ron’s a really nice fellow, the pictures that I took of his marbles unfortunately didn’t turn out very well.
16 Bill Tite checking out some of Ron’s marbles
17 Mike Adams with “Some Lady”. Mike had some really nice marbles that ranged from affordable to very nice.

21 Pete and RePete (sometimes known as Chuck and Ron).
22 Pete’s better half, Diane.
23 Kids playing with some marbles that Pete’s better half gave them.
24 “Some Lady” and Eddie Winningham. Eddie is a great guy who is probably going to catch a beating if his wonderful wife or George Sourlis catch him hanging this tight with “Some Lady”.
25 A picture of Chuck and Diane at their table.
26 – 28 Pictures of some of their marbles. In picture 27 you can see a real nice Kokomo, every time I go to a show and see that marble I get excited to see it for sale but when I pick it up the tag underneath says NFS. HERE is a picture of its cousin.
29 – 32 Some more pictures of Chuck & Diane’s marbles.
33 Bill Bass, Bill always has a great selection of marbles.

37 – 40 Some more of Bill’s marbles.
41 – 44 and some more
