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.

Godown bumped this thread, which has helpful stuff in it: http://marbleconnection.com/topic/18854-tiny-handmade-clearie-almost-smallest-least-rare-most-worthless-known-to-exist/

They do.

Good question. Very strange.

Very cool. Sometimes I think about doing something like this! You do it! I like.

Thanks for the bump, Craig. Sometimes I need to see something more than once before I register it.

Looks like their website: http://www.bolitastinka.com.ar/

Fun group.

I think I've seen someone call it a Hercules. I didn't like it when they did. But I don't know the consensus. Moving this to main chat forum now to see if more people who know names might answer.

LOL. Yup, Jimmy sometimes double-cheeses. We have much leftover mac.

Looks 100% Marble King to me.

We say bullet-mold, and picture literal bullet molds. But do we know the actual apparatus used to make bullet mold marbles and/or beads?

Could be so many people. Alley, Champion, Cairo Novelty, .... It doesn't look like it would fit in my Ravenswood box, but my Ravenswood box is small. I suppose it does look like it might fit into some of these packages: http://marbleconnection.com/topic/6857-mostly-pix-ravenswood Basic red & white was done by so many. Ooops, that just reminded me. I think I have another Ravenswood box and maybe a Ravenswood bag. I need to find those and confirm them. That would substantially increase my Ravenswood sample for comparison.

Plain blue and white. So hard to say. I have a similar Champion. I suppose it could fit in my Alley box also.

I'll ask Jimmy if he has it yet.

Alley is a good guess.

No kidding! Who is the artist?

"Check on the Canadian manufacturer." ???!!! ??? !!! ??? !!!!!

I make liberal use of the stove-top timer these days. And then just hope I remember why I set it. I think this means we're 50 .... ish

I wouldn't swear it couldn't be older. Hotwheel was my first and only guess is all.

"Is challkie only for the dug alleys with white chalk-like substance?" I think so.

My first thought was Champion Hot Wheels. Is there any chalkiness on it that I'm not seeing? (Chalkie has white powder-like stuff on it.)
