  1. This is the second major marble auction put together by Brian Estepp who is Director of Promotions at Morphy's now. Last November's auction was great and the catalog impressive. Brian has been a marble collector and dealer for over 25 years and a good friend. David

    The Catalog is awesome. I started getting it last year. I never signed up just came in the mail. I am bidding on the Dakota Candy Display Decatur. Always wanted one for my display.

  2. yeah, looks like alley to me too. terrific, So now the clear alleys with oxblood are now suspect too. (sigh) Including the one we bought from Alan about a year ago. Where's my wrist rocket???

    I remember seeing one like this in Alan's auctions. You think it was one of these, or just a look alike?

  3. Jabo Joker RAINBOW Run October 29th 2009

    Silver Oxblood Stringers

    These are among the rarest of the RAINBOW run Jabos, with some examples showing a deep burnt red, burnt orange, and even some with streaks of yellow which calls to mind Oxblood Egg Yolk marbles of old. I will add additional items as I have time. If you have some of these beauties consider letting us photograph them for history.

  4. The joker team have been talking about doing something differnt WOULD IT BE RIGHT OR WRONG your input please

    I thought about this last year and spoke to a couple of folks about it. The only down side IMHO is the needs of the economy here in the states. Is there something prompting this possible option? Someone mentions Steve Sturtz buying Jabo, is that a reality???

    In the beginning there were the Machine Masters who roamed the universe looking for the perfect world upon which to create the perfect machine.

    Earth, or as the Machine Master called it "Sphere" was perfect and had children call humans, which would appreciate the machines they would leave behind. They marvled over the abilities the hand made craftsmen showed, and the artistry of the human brain, and so they implanted the seed for the perfect marble making machine in the human consciousness.

    So was the dawn of Machine Made Marble.

    Rumor has is David McCoullough is still in contact with the Machine Masters!

  6. Jabo 2010 Dave's Christmas Marbles

    Produced at Jabo on 12-15-2010, Dave McCoullough does it again. Focusing on his 1" designs, Dave produced some of the most spectacular marbles in recent history, not to mention all time. He continues to experiment with LUTZ, trying to produce wide bands as a part of the molten stream. Most LUTZ has been added as the molten stream is falling and is only on the surface of the marbles. Dave continues to pursue marble craftsman excellence as these beauties demonstrate!

  7. I'm very picky. That's an understatement. And I hate to accumulate stuff. Also an understatement. Chances are that I wouldn't find even one keeper in a large lot of marbles, and I don't see any in all those pictures. Not trying to start anything, just explaining the way it is.

    This is the marble I bid on and didn't get. Wish it had more than two views.

    You like busy patterns, this one is nice:
