I'm not sure about the top and left. The bottom and right show a Pelt structure. The glass kinda sorta looks Rainbo-y, but I'm getting an older feel, more on the NLR end -- early 30's. Or maybe NLR on the bottom and tweener on the right. And then the swirls look like they belong with the 'em, don't they, but would be different maker. I am sooooooooooooo sorry for the missing posts. Was trying to trim on the old end where it wouldn't hurt. For budgetary reasons. Messed up. May I blame ADHD?

Oh no! Did I mess up? Oh no, oh no, oh no. I feel sick. The pinned thread about taking pictures of seams is gone also. I was deleting some old threads on the 2010 end and I must not have noticed when it returned me to the front and then deleted on the wrong end. Was trying to reclaim some storage from places that people wouldn't ever see again. I am so sorry.

That is so very cool. Thank you so much for showing us these special pieces.

When I first discovered this site, they were using Vacors. Now they've have handmades in their stemware. Artistic Stemware

Probably my favorite Vacors are the Sunsets. Some older pix I ran across tonight.

LOL ... lovely as usual. There's a word for when a word doesn't look like a word anymore after you've said it to yourself a lot. But I don't remember it.

Vivid.

I have been feeding the birds in the backyard. I hope I don't come to regret it.

I'm not quite sure what I'm listening to, but I trust it is meant in pure fun.

Hi there. You just sprained my eyeballs. I didn't know micas came in so much variety.

Some insight has recently been shed on that. Others such as Richard and Winnie will be more comfortable addressing it than I am. They'll be by soon, I'm sure.

cooler and cooler

Thank you for sharing. That's why I always like to hear from "newbies" to remind me of how it felt to enjoy marbles just because they were pretty little things before I learned all the dry identification and history.

Beautiful. And the dates make it even better. I wouldn't have guessed quite so late, and yet I'm not surprised. I'm a little sad picturing Ward keeping all those marble in the box and not playing with them. I guess he had plenty of others to play with.

Another nice bump.

Nice bump! *waves at Randy*

I never even think about Heaton when I think about clearies. In some portion of my mind I realized they made clearies -- for industrial purposes. I didn't know they bagged 'em for play.

I gotta get a better picture of them. Gotta nail the luscious amber. Maybe I should actually take them in brandy! That's something Bob would do.

Any developments to report here? Have we totally sidetracked you with collecting?

I don't get the disco ball reference though!

They glisten.
