  1. A neat list of adjectives for describing different kinds of luster and sparkle and iridescence -- Bob sent it to me. Nice pics. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lustre_(mineralogy)
  2. That would be a very nice display ... plus a nice way to keep oneself selective. I like it a lot. Need to remember.
  3. I'll vote yes. A slightly fuzzy vote though.
  4. Looks like we're in for six more weeks of winter. I can dig it!
  5. I covet charm strings. Hoping to come across one for a nice price in the wild. I stored my buttons in different ways like I did my marbles. Sometimes little baggies, sometimes in partitioned trays in Riker cases, sometimes bubble wrap lined boxes.
  6. That PPP is something else! Makes me think of an eyeball as drawn in an anatomy text.
  7. Like! Czech, yes? I might get into buttons again. I mostly sold off my buttons which I started collecting shortly before getting into marbles. I kept a couple of couple of different, interesting glass buttons. *putting it in queue to get pictures of*
  8. Sometimes I wonder if people make up words for these lists. I hope these are real. http://mentalfloss.com/article/28315/15-wonderful-words-no-english-equivalent
  9. Happy Groundhog Day. My favorite day of the year.
  10. How lovely (everyone) I have a fondness for contemps with specially designed stands made to match
  11. Nice randomizing! Great pic! MY pop would have known what kind of bike that was.
  12. Peanut Patch brand boiled peanuts .... I approve.
  13. .... I did a google search for a Tabasco sulphide ..... no luck
  14. I now have an idea for my turn .... and as soon as I find the box with my camera I'll join in.
  15. Pretty group. Congratulations, Doug! Thanks again, Dennis ... and Joe
  16. Definitely are ration books called "sugar books". I already don't remember what mine looked like, and don't know if there were separate books for sugar and other things. (The after-move unpacking and organizing is still in process.) Certainly! Post it for us!
  17. really old pic ... and I had a war at the time with the lighting ... my Alley Tater bugs ... some of 'em ... had strips of glass imbedded.
  18. For the marbles in pop culture collection .... Marbles in a Pink Floyd box set? What was that about?
  19. How big? What are the seam shapes? I'm torn between late-ish Akro and early-ish Asian.
  20. lol ! That's a tough one. We should ask Mike!
  21. Sweet pics. I just got my 12 from the run. They are lovely. Striking colors. Some with lutz ribbons and some with a sort of lutz mist.
