marboman

Thanks for your reply,MC.My reason for putting my work pictures on stems from a thread written on another board.It was very sad that a board owner / moderator there had lost the closness to the members and regretted not knowing them better.I am doing this in an attempt to get to know some of you better.Maybe if you see some of my work it might give you a glimpse of who I am. I tried the lurking thing for awhile but I too would like to know the members better and since I don't go to marble shows anymore and don't plan to in the future my best chance to get to know you is on this board making myself real/vulnerable,that's what artists do.Say what you like or don't like about my work,I am secure in what I am and do.My art is neither good nor bad,it is what it is.You guys are more stand offish than I thought you would be.Just trying to have a conversation.Bo

Sue great art pieces, I admire those who can work with jewelry.I wouldn't have put my art fart on if I had seen your thread first, mine could have waited. Larry made great contributions to the Arts,I can only wish I had some of his work,regards Bo

Ever feel like this ? An early metal sculpture I did.How do you like it? Bo

For reference the mica is 1-1/2" diameter ,Bo

Here are some I have collected in last few years.I am a machinemade collector but I don't pass up good handmades when I find them for affordable price ,Bo

Bubbly Black Catseyes'

These are Akro Patch,Black Widows

That was supposed to be funny,I must have been having a senior moment. Peace? Bo

Actually, I would have picked the Mint Rootbeer Brown/Beige 62-63 Austin Martin , 6-cylinder,overdrive ,convertble...... Bo

Edna, this is what I said

Not fair Griff,must choose one this is for research.Bo

The Legacy of America's Favorite Sportscar began in 1953, when 319 Hand Assembled White Corvettes launched the first use of a Fiberglass Body in a production car.Which would you prefer the perfect Vintage Model? or todays 2009 corvette off the show room floor.Choose one of the two only,please...Bo

Library must be closed

Sue if your talking to me I am not a child.Hind sight is 20/20.Try the here and now.I am tired of the Jabo cheerleaders.Bo

Steve if you get a chance I need the ISBN for your book, could'nt find it a Barnes and Noble

I'm OK with Pelt land !!!!!!!!!!

Can anyone tell me when " AMERICA'S DIRTIEST JOB " will be on? It's alot like the old GONG SHOW,according to my reasearch

I would like to see a separate page for the Jabo lovers.I like them myself, can not stand a steady diet of them.Also more pictures and information about legitimate vintage marble.Bo

Just don't read the posts you don't want to read. . Edna Edna, by contradictory, I mean how can I know in advance if I like a post unless I read it ? I have never said I don't want to read Jabo posts, I own many Jabos myself. Edna please read your own quote.

"Just don't read the posts you don't want to read. . Edna " How do you know if you want to read a thread unless you read it? Thats a bit contradictory don't you think....

Steve, I can't find your book at Amazon.com, can you give me the ISBN ,thanks,Bo

Lou, with all respect I understand your position . This has been tried before and it worked . At the time this board was becoming an I D for Ebay page that was solved sucessfully with the seperate I D page. And now it has become a Jabo promotion page .

Well I was gonna leave this alone for awhile but I have an idea.Awhile back there was the problem with newbies and ids on the main page.Some folks wanted the ids on another page so they would not have to sift thru them to find there freinds.In my opinion that has worked out well.Maybe we should give some thought or a vote to create another area for vintage marbles or jabos,like the ID page.What do you think.Problem solved? Vintage collectors won't be annoyed and jabo collectors can build each other up. Bo

Hello Kevin,good to hear from you.Yes I like the first two Joker runs also and the aces.I will tell you something,the cyclone and the aces or any of the jabos on clear glass are my favorite to collect.The reason is that since there on clear glass there is no buttcrack,maybe they should make more like that.Do you have any of those yet?Not all the Jabos before the Joker runs are poo;I found many of the 2004 superman marbles contain aventurine,they are some of my finest.According to my research this was the first time aventurine was found in a Jabo production run,green yellow and pink aventurine.You might want to get a couple of those,in my opinion they will have real value,soon.Have a great day Kevin, Bo

Steve,in my opinion you are to bias to have an objective conversation about Jabo marbles. Bo
