  1. Did the lightning bolt marbles have faceted pontils? (don't have one and haven't seen one that close)
  2. Just noticed the grade ramping up from large to small. Don't know if the Germans did that in their coffin boxes. Can you post another pic of the artwork on the front (theme looks European). Curious why you added Agate marbles, do you know something we don't yet?
  3. Ooooo. Interesting. Seems like a North American term & theme with packaging style normally attributed to Europe.
  4. For some reason the ones with this color combo (red core with blue bands) are often seen with the red latticino divided into three groups. Don't know why
  5. What's the size? Is it as white as it looks or is that baby blue washed out from the flash
  6. The bass (if you're a bass guitar fan, not the fish). Kossoff is incredible as well.
  7. Doesn't look like a beginner marble to me, pretty cool actually. Maybe someone here recognizes the maker. Is there any signature or initials
  8. Sure, onionskin-type pattern I should have said. There is no core (wide open on the inside)..
  9. Those are nice ones, are the first two pics the same marble? Haven't seen a lutz like that before, cool. Here's another oddball, even if it made it to be an onionskin the colors would have been weird.
  10. Some of the very few contemporary marbles I have, but the aventurine is great
  11. Those are bigger than I would have thought were made. Do you think they were intended to be marbles or something else
  12. Some of the ones currently posted look new (using an older technique). The one I posted actually looks old. Hard to say. I'm sure someone from Bulgaria knows something unless it's only one guy in a basement churning them out. Which it could very well be. Steph, your gut says they could be older?
  13. This one looks pretty good until I saw where it was from and that made me think twice... http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=131102113743
  14. Cool, you'll probably get some requests to see more shots of the Alley. The bricks sure live up to their namesake in that condition. I kind of like them that way
  15. You got a ways to go buddy (j/k) - on the cube I mean. Pics and subject matter = spot on
  16. 2nd marble from the OP looks like a 'snotty' except purple hues. Wouldn't want to call it a purple-hued-snotty but the thought very much crossed my mind
  17. These might not fall into the 'rare' category, but I don't see these too often and sure would like to see more And a couple other types/colors you don't see everyday
