It is not too late for a Gary Seven spin-off.

Agree. Jabo classics. I wouldn't buy them. Unless you really wanted them for yourself. They'd likely be difficult to sell again at any price.

Actually, the very first thing I saw was "Marble and Tops: The Reputation of Walter de la Mare" -- someone's doctoral thesis.

I always have an eye out for search terms which might bring up good stuff. Occurred to me to search for "Marbles and Tops" in quotes. Didn't go far ... yet. Up first was a postcard: http://www.oldpostcards.com/s/spo015032.html A little plain but if you like that stuff and haven't seen that one yet, there ya go.

This feels like deja vu. Have I posted this thread before? I'm holding a Pelt which is probably a Rainbo and it looks gray to me, but then I look more at the base glass at it's a little translucent, so maybe it's not gray ... maybe it's just a light trick. I'll try to get a pic. But in the meantime ... do you have gray marbles?

Indianapolis Marble Show January 9Th, 2016
Steph replied to QtheMIB's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Thanks for sharing. Good luck with the show! You'll do great. -
Yep, Ravenswood had a blue and purple also and that would fit better with the base. http://marbleconnection.com/topic/7584-ravenswood-novelty-marbles-a-review-of-varieties/

Condolences to your family.

I have a Champion with blue and purple ribbons on a white base, but the white on my Champ is more watery than yours appears.

" Cats In The Bag " And The Bag Lady Found 'em!
Steph replied to Ima_ddicted's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
I moved the quotation marks away -- on the left to give you a capital and on the right to give you symmetry. And yippee for finding the cats! Looking forward to seeing 'em. Master cross-throughs? ???? -
Funny how much that tickles us!
-
The second image didn't load. Maybe it was too big. I'm gonna guess it's vintage and thus will guess Alley based on size and general swirliness. I'll stick with that.

Interesting how the blue goes jagged. Looks ever so slightly Pelty in this view, but not in the others. Hmmmm .......
-
In these views it looks more swirly to me than slaggy. At that size for a swirl, my first thought is actually Vacor. That seems a little big even for an Alley, but Alley would be my second choice at that size. And maybe Jabo next. I'm not seeing a Vacor structure though in these views. So I'm at a loss. Maybe more views would help?
-
How big?

Here are some Akro sparklers for a more direct visual comparison to the Masters. Post Some Sparklers Just For Fun

The smaller marble in the middle might be a Vitro. Not sure about the one on the left in those views.

Totes adorbs. I'd heard of Pee Wee Reese but didn't know much about him. Just googled to learn more. Interesting life.

Oh yes, I remember now. That makes sense.
