  1. Our old thread for nifty stuff that had nothing to do with marbles has fallen into the back pages and has probably lost pictures because of the photobucket fiasco  ... so here's another one. I'll start it with this ... I'm pretty sure this was my mother's.  Not totally 100% sure that it came from her childhood, which would have been the 40's but pretty sure it's the one she had when she was showing me how they used to wrap a string around the top and then throw it to make it spin. 

    She also showed me how to play jacks.  She was very proud of her jacks playing skill. :)

  2. I'm not sure I would have seen a 9 in the first one, but I can believe you, since I'm pretty sure I see 9's and tails in the next two.  

    I'm comfortably saying no to Jabo. :)

     

    Not sure about MFC.  Not saying no, but not sure about textures and colors.

    Wait, so hybrid types were unintentional, other than Vitro? As in they made an effort to make them but everyone else tripped into the type?


    With other companies we usually think of a hybrid as a marble which was made when they were switching the glass mixture from my combination to a second combination, so you could get colors from both combos.
