  1. I have been so busy with my new puppy "Little Bob" I haven't had much time for anything else, He's black and white. Then the other day I got another Chihuahua for Judy her name is Honey Bun. Bobby is a light weight at three pounds and Honey is about four pounds. Both are six months old. They love to play and are fun to watch. We plan to breed them.
  2. The rest of the article. Two words jump out at me, exotic and profit! Magnetic steelies?
  3. I finally got around to posting these pics from a magazine I got last summer.There are some interesting names that seem new to me.

  7. I reworking one of my Vitro boxes today so I thought I would take a pic. Beautiful marbles everyone
  8. Nice Muddies ,I haven't seen a blue muddy like Bobs before, Very nice. They aren't bringing high prices yet but must be more desirable in shooter sizes.
  9. Don't cry, I'm planning to have it fixed one day.
  10. This one WILL make you weep.Size is 1-7/16".I imagine this marble sat under a porch freezing and thawing night after night for who knows how long.No glass missing,just alot of sub surface fractures.

  13. Steph,I think the middle one and the right one are Alley.Did I mention I'm not an expert? I realized my mistake about a moment after I posted,please ignore my input or delete if you'd like to.Actually they are some good examples of marbles that are not ravenswood.Embarrased but LMAO
  14. Hello all,seems like an interesting thread so far.These are some marbles from my collection I believe to be ravenswood,I am not an expert.No sign of handgathering but sizes are from left to right 31/32" 15/16" 1-1/32"
  15. Thanks Steph,I thought of that marble when I saw this auction.It was around $54.00 at the time ,never thought it would go that high.Marble on!
  16. This marble measures 15/16" colors are red black lavender green blue and beige.It has a master vibe but the lavender color and size make me think it may be related.
  17. Thanks Steph,I love mine.I got it at a rock and bottle show,what a surprise.There are four pictures in the back of the book.The three I posted and the one you included make all four.This pic is of American Cornelian toy marbles
