Locking this thread as it has wandered off topic into the squabble zone, but we do have a Squabble Zone area if someone wants to start a new thread there.

bumblebee replied to westcoast_dave's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Bummed to miss this as I am leaving Vegas after a conference the afternoon of the 23rd. -

The max dimensions were 200px, but max size 100kb. So it's probable the maximum dimension issue. I upped that to 300px to see if that helps. @William

Renewed my local Craiglist wanted ad and within a couple of days scored this really nice yellow(amber?) lutz with only a few flea bites. I think it's about 0.79". I rarely find handmades so always a treat. -

First show I ever went to. Sure miss it but I'm in -20 degrees in Montana now where marbles are scarcer than sunlight. 😆 -

Nice. I found one that size, a white with some lutz, but pretty banged up. Still, peewees are utterly charming. I keep meaning to craft my own miniature peewee brag box some day. -
Refreshing to see no bids on it.

Santa's elf has been busy. All the major American marble makers are in this lot, as well as a couple of surprises. When I first started collecting, it was difficult to find vintage marbles in the wild that were in mint-range condition. Took me a while before I truly understood how good a marble can look in mint condition, which is one reason why marble shows are so instructive and inspiring. In that spirit, most of these marbles are in the higher mint range.
