cat's eye jack

thanks Al for sharing those with me. it's funny as i just got done posted a pic of another single vane cat that i found. i guess you could call the color aqua? but i've got some serious doubts about it. thanks again, jack

awhile back i posted a 21/32" single vane cat in green glass. picked up some cat's today and found another 21/32" single vane cat in aqua. it's no where near as nice as my green one, the first pic, but it would be pretty cool if everyone likes it. thanks, jack

o'well thanks for looking. jack

marble is 7/8" and isn't that a wispy V as shown in photo.sure hope it's vitro thanks, jack

wow, that is one sweet marble, maybe he will trade me lol. jack

darn, i keep getting my posts in the wrong category. i kinda thought getting an i.d. on the maker would fall into the marble i.d. forum. sorry for the goof. jack

i posted this once before but did not get much feedback. it's 2 1/4" with no markings. can contemporary marbles be i.d. by an artists indivdual style or color combinations? thanks, jack

thanks ann and felicia for looking

some crazy bead ended up inside this cat and when enlarged you can even see the hole..anyone else got any?. thanks, jack

thanks for the info marboman & semdot and thank you al for the photos and info. i think i understand a little more now but i also think it might be more trouble looking for it than it is worth. thanks again, jack

i'm having a heck of a time identifying adventurine in my cat's. most of the ones i suspect are similar to the photos posted but i'm not too sure if it isn't just a stray dark vane on them. am i right with any?. thanks, jack

thank you david & marbo, was hoping that 7/16 mib might be hard to come by. jack

any one know if these are scarce? 7/16" pee-wee cross thru cat. maybe some idea on value? n/mint. thank you, jack

thanks for the information duffy, i'll check her out, maybe she has a little bit left. Jack

i seem to remember a few years back there were WV folks and others who were selling sealed bags,quarts,gallons or whatever of soil (and hopefully marbles) through the mail, lol, i think they guaranteed some with every order. does anyone else remember this and is it still going on? thanks, jack

thank you all for the valuable information. Jack

HI al, Just some chat.. I was wondering if you ever make the drive accross the border? I have a friend in Eureka, Randy George who has a fantastic marble collection. Very likeable person and would be worth a visit if you are passing through. Eureka was also the home of Harry Dixon who's marble collection was of museum quality. He passed away a few years ago and I was lucky enough to be invited to his home several times and unbelievable would be an understatement. jack

those are really cool cross thrus zaboo.they should go fast. thanks, jack

1" cat..clear glass..any idea on ballpark value? thanks, jack

thank you for your help jack

sorry steph, i typed in WV instead of WA. david i.d. them as anacortes. the ones on right look amethyst looking thru them. thanks, jack

on a previous post the group on left were i.d. as anacortes WV..any ideas on the group on the right? thanks, jack

i have about 50 of these. always wondered if they are old foreign? any thoughts? thanks, jack.

thanks a lot kevin..i try

well, i did some digging in boxes and jars and came up with 2 more. not as nice as the one i posted but close enough to wonder if this might have been a production run. any thoughts?? Thanks, Jack
