  1. Excited. This is going to make a special display. Got a variety of marbles and materials here. Will have to type up notes to accompany. Yes, I want to go to Rolley Hole sometime! In March I will be making my first out-of-state trip in many years. I'm looking forward to doing more. Rolley Hole is on the list. Not a lot of light left in the day, but I couldn't wait to take a picture. Came out pretty nice.
  2. .... and I can hardly wait for mine to arrive. Oh, I think it might already be at the post office .... *heading to town now*
  3. Hi. I think not mostly Christensen. Not saying there's none but none jumped out at me yet. I am seeing a lot of West Virginia swirls, some Peltiers, and one slag ... so far.

    ICE & SNOW ??

    Yeah, we had snow in October and then we went back to warmish weather. Was in the 60's a week ago. But I did see some frosty ground one morning this past week and tomorrow night it's supposed to be 20 degrees. Gonna play tennis tomorrow at noon. Temp prediction is 38.
  5. I have a lutz onionskin he made, but mine would be a late-era marble. It is from 2013.

    European?

    I would have guessed Asian, and Asian marbles were imported to Europe. So that's probably still my guess. It doesn't look Japanese, but I'm wondering if it could be a Hong Kong marble. Without remembering any details of what I saw, I remember that I had the _impression_ that the early Hong Kong marbles could be somewhat amorphous. *open to education on this one*
  7. Scott's friend Martin posted this in Scott's memorial thread. I figured I should ask about it in the general chat. Does anyone have any information about the Kingly Line? Pictures of it? Knowledge of who owns any? Thanks.
  8. I have a stack of boxes saying "sort and shred". This ad is why the boxes don't simply say "shred after such-and-so date". Last night I went through boxes from 2009 to 2011. 99.5% of the paper went into the shredder and is now on the way to use as bedding for puppies, but .5% needed rescuing.
  9. Welcome! It's a great hobby and even better that you can share it with family.
  10. That was a quick trip upstairs. As I thought, the vanes on your marble look much more orderly and better connected than any of my large modern MK cats. I'm leaning vintage.
  11. That's where I would have it. An inch? I'm thinking you might have a rare St. Marys. But it would be so rare I'm afraid to say it for sure. It does NOT look like my modern MK's as far as I can recall but you're sending me up to the attic to check out vane textures. Not a color combination I have anywhere. Where did you find it?
  12. Looks like fun All Products (intrism.com)
  13. You've come a long way, baby! You're definitely in the Advanced Placement program.

    Backlit

    I don't know what that is, but I like it!
  15. ❤️ I would love to have one of your marbles. Or two? Let me know if you have any leftover beyond what you're hoping to provide in other venues.
  16. I adore the giant superball-looking one. That's a Vacor Fiesta.

    Big Dime box

    Congrats on the Dime box. I only remember the nickel boxes. So this one surprised me. Good find.
