Thanks you guys for jumping in. Now I don't want to say this. So nobody read this part. Disagree about the company calling it "special". Two-color opaque corks were "prize names". Three-color opaque corks were "tri-color agates".

The Tar Heels made the Badgers work hard for this one.

If I were to move there, you'd never get more than an inch again. Heat waves follow me around. Is nature trying to tell me something? But seriously ... I think I hear Minnesota calling my name.

Even looks like she's trying to ask "Are you okay?" at the beginning

Kewl. Nice data.

Hello welcome. Looks like a Clearie. The terminology for the shape includes "out of round" and "football". Would be practically impossible to guess which company made it.

If either Wisconsin or Oklahoma wins I'll claim bragging rights. They're still in it. But Oklahoma State lost. That's my school.

We got one thin layer of snow yesterday. It was melted within hours. 33 degrees and light rain predicted now.

Would be cool to see some blackies bags to see what kind of representation they have in original packaging. (Will hunt to see what bags I have in files.) I'm not sure I remember a comment about their rarity. What I remember is a discussion about whether there was a difference between whities with a black band and blackies with white patches.

Bumping with a favorite (orbboy's )

I don't have a guess for my black-based one with the more spread out orangey patch either.

Akro?

I just dropped in to wish Bob a happy birthday. Not really here today. Must catch up with certain projects. Everybody play nice. No burning down the house! XXOO, Steph

I'm not here. Don't tell anyone you saw me. But I couldn't miss this.

Have We Figured Out Who Made These?
Steph replied to hdesousa's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Newspaperarchive.com has a lot of Canadian papers. Maybe there's a chance to find something with Dave's keywords. Didn't on my first quick search but didn't go very deep. Have a coupla things I'm supposed to be doing right now. Gotta get to them. You guys have fun while I try to buckle down here. -

The Red Flash! George Sourlis sent me a link to this. Said he hadn't seen it before. Now that's saying something. If after all these years there was an Akro ad George hadn't seen, then there still may be some gems out there to be discovered.

LOL. I just wanted pics of that type in this thread. I've heard the stories a lot. Seen the public stories. Heard versions which could only be told in private. I just wanted to see some pictures.

Thanks. I wish I knew more about how to search anything other than the U.S. But glad to have keywords in any case. First thing for me will be to pull up an atlas. I am shamefully ignorant of geography. -
