  1. Interesting, never seen it before. Probably could have bought a Ford in those days for that price. With items like these it's always interesting to think what type of marbles would have 'graced' it over the years
  2. Some handmades that look better under water due to surface issues but love the patterns
  3. yeah, ironic that when the performance of the site really slowed down from ads, the pop-ups for ad-free memberships appeared
  4. Guess we're all responding to a 6 year old thread at the same time lol. Yes, EdNargel thats a cool Pelt variation.
  5. Nice grouping Dfay, most of them look like Pelts (except the separate one marked 43/64). Recipes and ratios varied between (and within) batches and companies so colors didn't always look the same whether it was in the same batch or a different company altogether.
  6. Those Bulgarian's are getting better by the day, sheesh Nice one Galen!
  7. Nice pics, awesome selection and a few "unfinished/end of cane/beginning of cane" marbles that (even at a small percentage) stand out. Very cool
  8. I picked up some old books for 50 cents ea, and some old bottles for 5 cents each. Couldn't pass them up for that price. One of the old medical books had an invitation in it from 1866 to other local doctors to discuss a new medical act. Need to do some more research on that.
  9. You're right it would probably expand (rust/oxidize) and crack the glass if it were much more than just on the surface under most conditions it it were a mild steel
  10. Sounds gross, but that's a lot of white for a snotty isn't it?
  11. Hadn't thought about it sooner until the thread got bumped, but could it be a finial of some type? Maybe a backlit pic?
  12. Nice purple, had to do a double take
  13. Good question? It certainly looks similar in terms of colors and cutoffs, maybe your second marble can shed some light from the recent posters? nice marble by the way
  14. My thoughts (with marbles or anything, for that matter) is to spend within budget. If your mind is set on owning a _____ and set aside X-amount every day for the sole purpose of acquiring a ______ then go for it.
  15. Don't know where it was made to be honest. Might be? I'd wager it was made outside of North America and before marbles in the top pic
  16. Wait, found some more that sort of fit the 'pastel' category
  17. Nice bump, good job capturing aventurine in the pics.
  18. cool, you'd just think that limestone or clay (or glass, lol) would be a lot easier to make spheres out of. Nice marbles. Hope you're feeling better
  19. Wow, not a big Akro fan but the middle marble speaks loudly
  20. looks like at least a few nice ones there (Pelt spiderman, Akro popeye, couple Alleys), looking forward to the new pics
  21. whispy base glass looks similar to some foreign 'sparklers', maybe even some Masters? What's the size?
  22. In my first response I wasn't sure if it was the marble return or the negative feedback that was the issue but either way not worth dealing with the BS.
  23. little too whispey for a pelt from what I can tell
  24. pic posting is getting better, can see some nicer marbles in these groups, congrats
