  1. Neat marbles - I am with Ann . . . have a few slags but no STs.
  2. That is a cool picture, Winnie, it looks like they are making cube stock to hand shape on a wheel. The marbles are Alleys - a few rare ones.
  3. To keep it from boiling out of the spout?
  4. I see no reason why not Alley and I have dug ones that would match quite a few of them.
  5. I have not seen an Alley like it but I have certainly not seen them all. And after I looked at my Ravenswoods, I am not so sure that it's Ravenswood either, and it worries me a bit that these seem to be showing up all of a sudden - quite a few colors for Alley or Ravenswood IMO. Could it be one of Sammy's? I wouldn't mind seeing a couple of more pics of yours. Here are some Sammy's (Rich Shelby's pic).
  6. It looks like a nice Ravenswood from here. Let me know if either or both of you would like to trade or sell . . .

    The egg came before the chicken.
  8. I had heard the rule books were packed in some of the world's fair boxes but I did not know that they were packed in bags until now. I was also a little surprised that they were already using 'leatherette' bags in 1933.

    I found it along with some other nice ingots and a few marbles in southern Illinois quite a few years ago. It's amazingly round other than a smooth nub and if you study it a bit you can pick out the six marbles that make it up.

    Just thought I would throw this in - a sextuple ingot Rainbo, about 1 1/8" . . . without the little nub. lol
  12. Now there's a special piece of paper - wow!
  13. This is great! I bet that factory was sort of a dangerous place with a bunch of long open belts running around on wooden pulleys - I can only imagine. The marbles look typical for Ravenswood. A lot of their transparent swirls were oversized but 3/4" is probably about as big as I've seen them - lucky groundhog! This is very cool, thanks a lot for sharing the pics. Any idea who RRC is?
  14. I really like a nice flower China too and those are certainly nice ones. Winnie, the ones you show on the right in your pic are super cool! They look like a lilly and an iris - you have a great eye. Good to see you here Catfish!
  15. The vase-full of swirls is sweet and the flamey one is too. And my favorite thing about the Vitro Victories is their crystal clear base glass.
  16. Nice one Eggie. I like chinas but do not have even one as nice as yours . . . I need to fix that.
  17. That is a dandy box Winnie - a very nice set of marbles! The bright blue and green colors are sweet. Congratulations on your find!
  18. That will be great Steve - thanks!
