I had a Pelt Flip Flop picture, and now I can't find it. One which was all nicely labelled to explain the Flip Flop concept. And now I can't find the photo and my meager Pelt collection is packed away for our move. Anyone up for taking some pix of Pelts angled to illustrate the flip flop pattern in the ribbons?

Shoot! Morphy changed format and now I can't figure out how to link to Morphy auctions reliably. Looks like the same address may be used for the marbles section in different auctions. This address: http://auctions.morphyauctions.com/Category/Marbles-136.html I got that from the September auction and then later clicked on it and it took me to the December auction. For September 23 & 24, 2016 go here and then look for the Marbles section: http://auctions.morphyauctions.com/catalog.aspx?auctionid=250 For December 10 & 11, 2016 go here and look for the Marbles section: http://auctions.morphyauctions.com/catalog.aspx?auctionid=267

Needed these for another discussion so I'll post 'em here too. Sunsets ....

Nifty! And pretty marble selection. Congrats. Hope this takes off. *Hey Kids! Free Marbles! Bring your parents to the store!*

Button saw ... I use a longer string ..... .... off to hunt for a string now ...... found a piece of thread which worked for a few spins before it broke ... putting string on the wish list.

No kidding. But it's for really real modern MK.

Hi Ray. Long time. I often think of you and your sweet mibs.

Long time since I "listened to the ocean roar" in a seashell. So I did that today.

Here was a Marble King which could have passed for Pelt. But I recognized the colors and had some like it with better fused patches.

That's an example of one for which I do not know the Akro company name. I have seen so much advertising for Akro ... but I don't know what those were called.

Stray thought ... those bubbles are a nice effect ... look like mercury.

I think I've seen one. For some reason it doesn't seem surprising to me. Special. Yet not surprising.

Well, I better get me some of those.

"Marbles are not only used as toys, but they are also used in filtration systems, as a mixing aid in spray paint cans, and have even been used by NASA in a space balloon for different gauge tests." That's from the Marble King site, http://www.marblekingusa.com/industrial-marbles.html. Pretty sure we haven't mentioned outer space yet in this thread.

I agree MK on the one with the dark base. The group ... I am letting you educate me on that. I am not up to speed on the modern MKs. I have seen enough weird ones from MK that I could believe they would come up with a Pelty batch.

Just the one pair of blue ribbons, eh?

What a pelty offering. Glad to see the new MK's ... and the old one is pretty cool.

That's a Thanksgiving trip!

Gobble gobble, Paul.
