It's new to me too - nice find!

. . . a slice of sugar cream pie topped with strawberries and black raspberries. MMmmmm good!

Very cool! I like when there are lots of marbles - the chaos is fun.

7/8" and 31/32"

Nothing better than an eclectic group of vintage and antique marbles . . . and a nice salmon corkscrew too.

1 1/2" beater I just can't throw away . . .

I think Euro on the first one and non-American transitionals on the others - all nice marbles, but that purple one is great.

I chose a few months ago. Someone needs to step up and make a decision. No one will fault you for it. It's a short month, and if we require some sort of consensus this thread is dead. Post one up and stake your claim!

Thanks, Brian - excellent pics, and a great marble too.

Nice marble, Galen. AV on a CAC can't be common. Could we see the gather?

Ring Men . . . very interesting. From the article description and the name "ring man" it sounds like the ring men might form a circle surrounding the "prize" (winning) marble. I imagine it would be challenging to shoot a 1" ring man out of the playing area with a smaller shooter and I wonder if there was a foul if the "prize" marble was hit while you were trying to remove the ring men. So many questions . . . very interesting, Steph. I second Al's sentiments . . . thanks for posting it!

A nice Master. Harder to find than a Tiger Eye (purple instead of blue) IMO.

That's what it's called on the WVMCC site - figured I'd use it.

It's a nice color combo.

I think that would be a Moss Agate - Akro, I think.

Could be another Akro.

It's a little hard to tell but I am leaning Akro.

It appears to be a later Vitro All Red.

Show off!

I think both are Alley. The transparent red based ones are not too easy to find.

All but the lower left are Alley IMO.

That is pretty cool, Hack. It doesn't seem like it would be heavy enough. How big is it, and how much does it weigh? Any idea why it has holes in the top?

They do fit together nicely in a group, Winnie. And I agree, the base and striping glass in my marble is quite a bit brighter.

. . . or maybe a Cairo Red Lightning (S.Org).
