  1. Coppery thread in the blue?
  2. thank you as always p.s., I just read this thread title as "Mostly Pix - Heaven"
  3. Citation is always good. However, Alan gave blanket permission for his work to be used. I'm going to break this segment of the thread off and move it down to the BOI/SZ forum.
  4. Must. Not. Laugh. Wonder who made 'em and who was gonna use 'em.
  5. Al, do you have bags like that in any of your jobber packaging?
  6. Alan and she were close friends, and he gave people permission to post text from his site. Would be less confusing if she cited it formally. But she was probably just trying to share the historical information as background. I'm sure she didn't mean anything nefarious by it.
  7. I'd need to drag out my Thornburg pics though and they're not on this hard drive yet. I _think_ I may have seen marbles that size, with crackle, which were not attributed to Tom and would go in the rough category of generic "repro". But again ... no pix for comparison at this time, so it's just fuzzy memory.
  8. Good thought. He made some smooth and some crackled.
  9. Gosh, thanks Grant. I love show report threads. That's a tradition I have missed.
  10. *waves at Lloyd* Nice to see you! Pretty agates.
  11. wild ... I found a nice one in a surprise location during my move. Marbles kept popping up everywhere! Now I just have to find my camera.
  12. I also found a red angel in a jar ... before I knew what angels were ... I just knew there was something special about it so I pulled it into a special spot until I learned more about it.
  13. I'm not always sure how to tell the difference between clay and something like limestone in photographs. The value is mostly just knowing that you have a little piece of history.
  14. Hi Linda. Thanks for stopping by. My inheritance was going to be my mother's Cracker Jack and gumball machine toys from the 1940's ... and they also disappeared sometime during a series of moves. So I started to try to reassemble a collection in remembrance. .... that search for small toys helped lead me to marbles ....
