  1. Darn ... lots of missing pictures in that thread and the linked threads. Need to update. Still likely fake.
  2. Do they look like anything in this thread? http://marbleconnection.com/topic/6908-mostly-pix-fake-chinas-tennesseeatlanta-porcelains/
  3. I'm not able to make out enough details of the marble to know. From this one angle, it kinda looks like it could be in the more corky moss agate family. But with other pics who knows what it might look like.
  4. Who is the question to? Jess about whether there is opalescence? ... or me about finally capitulating and agreeing to the name "Ace" in spite of lack of opalescence? In my mind I'm still calling it a moss agate. But it looks like what others call an Ace so if you can't beat 'em ...
  5. Personally not sure of Vitro here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/171833322493 Don't see Akro Blueblood here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/171833304193, and not sure about Akro. This is a Peltier Rainbo. http://www.ebay.com/itm/171833348236 Not what is generally labeled "Multicolor". Multicolor is a name for a certain type, so it's confusing to use it as a description even if the description is accurate. This lot has one blackie. The marble with red on both ends. http://www.ebay.com/itm/171833340889 Since Blackie is actually a Vitro name, Blackline All Reds aren't usually called Blackies as far as I know. You asked for comments! I hope I didn't go overboard.

  7. Nice use of busted marbles .... I guess they were busted?
  8. We have photos of two of our cats who have passed. And a refrigerator magnet poem dedicated to one.
  9. Yep, gotta be what folks call an Ace now. Nice! Gotta remember cornflower blue.
  10. Burt, is the teal on your opaque or transparent? I've been picturing it as transparent. If it's solid like Terry's looks then I gotta erase most of what I said above.
  11. I don't think of onyx white as typically being wispy. I suppose it could be though. Here's a box of onyx marbles (with a line of spirals on the left). https://www.pinterest.com/pin/367113807096627526/
  12. What's the strangest thing you have on your refrigerator? We have a few candidates. I'm going with the Mamma Mia! The Movie magnet.

    Cilantro

    I never understood why spinach was used as an example of a horrible thing you force children to eat. I've been a spinach fiend since my Gerber days.
  14. Mebbe they're following the sun but don't take the same path everyday.
  15. This is one of those which puzzles me. I don't see it as being part of a Tri-Onyx Agate run (i.e., not an intentional Popeye). But what _would_ Akro have called it? I don't have a clue.

    Whajuthink?

    Green brick! is what I want it to be.
