  1. These are all part of a buyout out at champion sometime in the 90"s these people bought about 15 drums of mibs , original boxes of champs and everything they could get off the floor. They even got the file cabinets with contracts, formulas and other paper work.Some of the boxes Contain other than Champion Mibs but our still in Champ boxes.Hope this clears it up for you!

  2. ok guys and girls, here's the story from my post on LOM about this find!

    Hi all,

    Let me start by saying these are not mine,and at this time not for sale. Also there is several board members that do know the history of these mibs.(as far as we can go up till now).I apologise for the pics as i thought my batteries were charged and they were dead! I can not go in to details until i get an ok from all parties involved. So here goes as best as i can tell you. 8 or 9 years ago i was talking to a friend of mine and some how we got talking about marbles, he started telling me about he and his partner had bought several drums of mibs! well i heard it and believed him but at the time did not collect mibs. but still had it tucked in my memory. About 6 months ago i got a call from a good friend about a couple of drums of mibs in a neighboring state and immediately thought of my friend. So went up and looked at said barrels and talked to my other friend who had told me the original story, and sure nuff they were part of his inventory. and to make a long story short, these are the other (undiscovered) LOL LOL!

    inventory!

  3. WE saw this lamp about 3months ago and did not buy it. About 2 weeks after that we bought one at a auction,Called up the dealer and bought it. We just picked it up last week and forgot how BIG it was! It's HUGH, Has all kind of caged cats, 3&4 vane multi color cats and hybrids! We believe these to be real pieces of folk art! Just thought we would share it with you.

  4. I for one are waiting for a reply. I have not stopped posting at LOM but after this Pete will have to talk to me! What the HELL happened to marbles instead of vendettas. I guess my time in the mountains of West virginia has lulled me in to a sense o f civility!WOW was i wrong! People ripping off other people? Name some names! All the boards caution the newbies about crooks. But to bad mouth GREAT MARBLE PEOPLE LIKE EDNA IN MY MINE IS ABSOLUTLEY A SHAME!!

    I thank all of my good friends in the mable community for thier frendship and i will talk to you all soon!
