  1. ROFL @ Miss October's pose! I started with buttons ... then transitioned into marbles, leaving buttons behind.
  2. That is beautiful. Could design a house around that.
  3. I was having trouble with photobucket loading super slow yesterday. Didn't get kicked off. But gave up on some pages loading.
  4. Awwwwww ..... sweet. And what a great pic. I had one cat who liked to play with my marbles and buttons while I was sorting them. He didn't hurt them. Was gentle. I wish I'd let him do it more.
  5. Good morning! I don't understand the photo concept. Maybe I'll zen on it for awhile.
  6. You just got me all excited about Nivison-Weiskopf marbles. Then I realized that was probably a description of Master marbles. No?
  7. Vitro is looking better and better for that style. Still don't know though. Long-time mystery to me.
  8. If you have one or more Benningtons, at least have a big one. Big marbles in with the smalls to grab attention.
  9. Thanks, Rick. Any idea on the age of the Smokey?
  10. It does look like a 6 fingers.
  11. That's a fun pic ... whatever he's doing .....
  12. Lilac makes me think Alley.
  13. That really looks like a calendar photo!
  14. Dang! That's sharp! But weird. What was Pelt trying to do on that day?
  15. Very short old thread on the subject: http://marbleconnection.com/topic/8778-the-nivinson-weiskopf-company/
  16. This page says, "The NIVISON-WEISKOPF COMPANY: Cincinnati, Ohio, formerly a glass bottle manufacturer and printer of labels between the 1900s and 1980s." http://www.jdcollectorspage.com/RealOldBottles1.html That makes me wonder if they were basic clear marbles. Like for codd bottles or lithography balls for printing.
  17. Dennis, the backlit view on yours appears to have a visible cutline which I found interesting and which might have made me think of a patch company. The other views look swirly though. The swirly views make me think your marble is a Champion.
  18. Sometimes you get marbles together in a lot and they're such close matches that you think they must have been littermates. (Bob, this is the second pic of yours which didn't load for me today. Just the first quarter inch and then nothing else. I don't know what I'm missing. )
  19. aggressive? LOL ... I'm confused too.
  20. Dunno = I don't know Bump = add a post so that it will be back at the top of the feed in the hopes that someone else will see it and give it a shot
  21. Hey, it's only 5 p.m. here. I'm still wide awake.
  22. Coo? Is that a British term? Moonies are hard to identify on a computer. Turns out lots of makers had marbles with fire inside.
