All the best to the Guru of Swirls. Happy Birthday Ron. Dave

Hey if you need a box you can contact that Pavcraz guy on ebay. I'm sure he could whip you up something good. Seriously though great group of mibs you got there. Congrats.

Actually out of the handfull I had Alan sold 2 of them over the years and called them Masters. I sold 3 at least as Masters to serious collectors with no problems. All sold for $30-$35 each cuse they had good Aventurine in them. There must have been something that struck Alan as odd about the one he just offered. Pics are not really helpful in his auction to be able to offer any input. So here is a picture of a marble instead.

Not sure where this one fits in?

These are nowhere close to as pretty but I think they count. (Mum pic from latest find)

My marble is one from a small handfull I had. It does not show the great seams that the others did, but it had the most sparkle. Les Jones I.D the whole group inhand, and was happy as heck when I let him pick one to keep.

Everyone needs a Lizard that's for sure. If you aint got one get one. There are lots on Ebay but I already have most of them. Some of the new ones are pretty neat, but I like the older ones. Not sure why this one was listed with a buy-it-now of only $8.00, but it was and I bought it right then. What a score.

Here is a Master.

Jabo babble was letting this thread sink to near off the page. So I'm bringing it back up where it belongs.

That Multi-wrap Blue and Green Akro Auger Spiral Corkscrew is just one of a kind. Mine is pretty sad compaired to that one. Wanna trade??? I also like the one with the lime green glowing (i assume) base with the double wrap of baby blue. Nice! Where is your multi colour tornado sprial? Needs to be in this thread as well.

Hey thanks Sissy. That pretty much nails this one down for me. I zapped my paltry Vitro collection with the light and not much glowed for me. A couple of Helmets, and a couple of fancier looking Helmets is all. I'll get some pics of them and start a new thread. Thanks for the info. Duuude that looks like quality in both regards lol. Here is another example of the Jokers antics titled "Screwing With Pot".

Thanks Sissy that would be awesome.

Lizards with wings work for me for sure. Here are some lizards with marbles.

Wow this thread took a big old U-Turn there. Thanks for the Jabo stamp there Sissy, great to know. At least there are a couple of tidbits of information in this sillyness after all hehe.

I think these frogs have been made for years. Still not sure why but they are funny. A quick ebay check will turn up a few. Here is a pair with a buy it now. My link

Ok a couple of jokers have showed up and decided to take over my little project. I tried to tell them that none of the lizards in the pics were herbivores, but they did'nt seem to care. They call it "Lizards in the Grass"

It would be cool if someone showed a Parrot that glowed. I still think it is a safe guess to think 90's Jabo on my Blue and purple one though. Anyone with ideas on what it might be or is, please chime in. You are right though anything could glow. Brings to mind some NLR's I had where some of the dividing white lines between the coloured ribbons glowed and some did not. Odd little marbles. Hey Galen keep those lizards away from squirrels. I had a few of those at one time. Then adopted 3 orphan squirrels. Needless to say they thought the lizards were candy and gnawed the crap out of them. It was too late to save them by the time I saw what was going on, so I let tham have at it. Must be a tasty root they made them out of cuse there was not much left of any of them by the time they were old enough to be released. I'll get some pics for you catfish. It's dusting day today so I'll put all the bigger ones in a pile and snap a couple of pics. Have a laugh at these ceramic frogs in the meantime. Found the girl in Virginia when I was 5 years old, found the boy here in Canada last year. Crazy what someone will make for no real reason.

Thanks for all the info. I do kind of like it. But holy crap! Look at the size of that honker Bill posted. Now that's a chunk of red glass if I ever saw one.

It is a nice red. Aside from condition issues I think it's pretty neat.

Jaw Droppers! All of em. And your pics make them seem to come to life. Just awesome.

Doing some scrounging today and came up with a red Slag that is a bit over 13/16" That's big right? Not as big as they come I know, but a pretty good size for red?

Well I have around 50 Brass or Bronze lizards so, ummm where was I going with this? Oh yeah I have around 50 or so lizar... nope that's not it? Ah screw it.... I can live with Parrot lizard. Or music Lizard. Whoever musicnmib$ is has a great eye for marbles, and is almost as anal as I am when it comes to the grading and measuring of marbles. As well as a valued customer.

Guess I'm brain farting then? Kinda sucks cuse I took the money from both Parrot sales and promplty bid on this. I used to think of it as the lizard Stepf bought me, but now it will have to be a Parrot lizard. Is musicnmib$ name Steph as well? Geeze pushing 40 and already forgetting stuff. Stupid pot! I keep forgetting to stop smoking that stuff.

Ummmm?? musicnm!b$ is/was you? Or am I having a brain fart?

How could you forget this one?
