So now it's three adults none of whom eat the same kind of food as each other. I thought Bob and I might have more food tastes in common. But that's okay. We'll still share an Asian meal some day, I'm sure.

These were mine once. Very early on in my collecting, before I learned which ones I shoulda kept. Set is thoroughly dispersed now.
-
Has this one been asked about? I just ran across it in my photobucket and I can't remember if it was asked about. Can't even quite remember where I saw it. I guess someone posted it on Facebook and I was curious? But did I follow up?

Are these considered oddballs with the white / uncolored stripe?
-
Hunh .... this is cool. Not one I would have felt good ID-ing. In fact I wouldn't have gotten it at all through the computer. This is the kind of range of variation I like to see. We see the "classics" (which I love) often. So it's also nice to see some not so classic.

Oh, Dale's is American? Hmmmm ... wonder if that could be them .... hey, someone want to write 'em and see when they were founded?
-
Well that's pretty darn cool.

So .... no one save those triple pix? How could we have let those get away?!

Welcome, Derek.

quite a range in that glass. -
Is there any way to ID a maker/date made on this marble
Steph replied to GoofyCat's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
I woulda thunk the figures would be made elsewhere and bought by the person encasing them in glass. Wouldn't have expected the clayworks and glassworks to be at the same site. But now I realize I have no basis for that idea and might actually have seen an ad (or letterhead) which suggested otherwise. -
Such character. Nice to meet you, Alan.

It's heavenly.

Bo Stiff posted a triple ingot sparkler. Tome, from Australia, posted the triple ingot cat. But I'm not finding pix. Shoot.

Here's a Triple Rainbo that Rick (RAR) posted. 3/4".

Somewhere, somewhen I remember a double (and maybe even a triple) Sparkler. I also remember a double cat's eye -- a foreign one -- and in a way it seems that would be even more rare because that's not something you could get from a dig.
-
That's a looker.

Good job! It takes all kinds. The toys let people play who can't quite picture themselves setting up their own. Something for everyone. Elimination was a fun idea, but the point accumulation races tell you the most about the marbles' "skill" level.
-
Rather meaty. Wouldn't guess a later Alley. Could be earlier. Wouldn't be surprised if someone came in and said the broad ribbons pointed to someone else.

The white doesn't seem quite white enough for a slag. So I'm leaning "West Virginia swirl". With a twist you wonder if it will turn out to be a Japanese transitional -- or maybe a funky Peltier even -- but I'm not seeing that in the extra views.
-
Again, normal lighting needed -- from here I'd guess we're looking at more Clearies. However, I don't want to say too much until I get a better view:
