that was in answer to a statement. interesting isnt it? nice talking to you Bert....
Farah, when you wet a marble it covers up any marks on it so therefore its not only mint but wet mint.......
Marie
ya Stacy, their sure in "fine" condition. 50 years? yes thats true but would have had to be in someones closet to be in fine condition by now. JMHO
Marie
hi miser, what dont you understand? vintage means old, old marbles have been banged around either a lot or a little therefore they wont be "wet mint" ok?
ya sure, Joe. they were his glass marbles......and he was that age in the 40's, just the right period of time......tell me who you are... gotta know, its important......
before Jabo started "making runs" they made marbles just like anybody else. i have several of them and this pic is of some of them. .....i dont know any history or anything i just know what i was told.....
Marie
Galen, you took me half way arent you gonna finish? those marbles are with a shooter they are selling. i also had 16 of them. who made the shooter and where did you get it. cant do anything without names. thanks.
Marie
Galen, i cant thank you enough for the picture. its exact. i was trying to research marbles over seas and got extremely tired with all i was running up against. are these Imperial? from China? now, we have to id the others....
Marie
Galen, when you say Asian marbles just what do you have in mind? i would like to be able to do some research on them and also the green ones. how many other marbles companies are there in the rest of the civilized world?
Marie
Mark, those marbles on ebay uk are like Mega, they have a bunch of pretty marbles with stupid names on them. surf toon just happens to be the name of that one. its not like mine. i searched all of their marbles looking for mine and it wasnt there. thanks anyway.
Marie
btw this is my very first post of a picture...... be sure and let me know Galen, so you are sure the other ones are Asian? have you seen them before?
