Thought the same, and how lucky we are that folk were so litigious because we get these great depositions with raw history!

It says incomplete and at some point around page 447 it skips to somewhere in the 500s, so I imagine there are other gaps throughout. Contains depositions with terrific descriptions of marble making, etc. PDF is attached. Images are just sample excerpts. Edit: I have also included a separate document containing plaintiff exhibits in color. Hopefully more such documents will surface. These documents are from the University of Illinois-Urbana and scanned by Google, so it's possible the university has others.

I found this on Facebook: Think he had a website way back when. I saved some pictures from it. Can't remember what it was called though so I can't look it up on the Internet Archive. EDIT: Apparently rumors of Bill Tow's death have been greatly exaggerated.

Here's AI's vision of toy marbles found in King Tut's tomb.

The Mojo Elvis one is perfect. That seems like a marble Elvis would dig.

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.

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. 😆

Here's a photo of the bag of them the original eBay seller showed me.

His link is safe but his SSL security certificate expired and is no longer valid. He needs to renew it and install the new one.

That 2nd one! 🌶️

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!

Hah! 🤣 Glad they made it despite delays caused by the Abominable Snow Man. Merry Christmas! 🎄

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.

I put the five names in a box and my daughter drew the winner this morning... Congratulations to @B-rett66, you win all the marbles!

I was wondering that too, but when I searched the FB Vacor Fans group for "eclipse", this came up in about the fifth post from back in May!

Here's a 5/8" machine made Vacor Eclipse I purchased in a net bag today with a fine nine.

Here's an old thread in addition to the Joe Marbles page:

OK, you're in. Good luck!
