This is a Pelt. It's translucent but not too far from opaque. It seems like it should be an Acme Realer. But no fire. I suspect it was made as a Realer but something was just off ... too much white crowding out the glow.

I think the ones up top with the fluorescent pale green bases are from later in the 1930's, so I wonder if they would still have been sold by Pelt as Peerless Patches of if they might only ever have been sent to the jobbers for inclusion in mesh bags.

Lovely

Maybe someone can share the pic. (hint hint hint )

I knew the first one. The other two were new to me.

I'll keep that in mind. But really I'm not worried. The balloons might not have been big enough anyway. They were specially for water balloons. I'll try again next year with bigger balloons and new dye. bahahahaha .... what a mess.

Bump ... Two ending in about a half hour, several in 2 hours ...

oh man, that was intense

Yep ... Now I get to learn how long green food dye takes to fade. lol

Soooooo .... it's cold and we're getting some good snow and I decided to try ...... got out my balloons and the food coloring and ....... welllll ...... we've had that food coloring in the cabinet for a long time, and I guess maybe they used adhesive to stick the nozzle to the top of the little bottles and I guess the adhesive dissolved during the years of non-use ...... and welllllll ....... * * * * * * * *

Just in case anyone on this forum missed this one .... or if you want to see it again ..... hi-frickin-larious

wow

Hi Toby!

I'll have to take the Realers out of yesterday's patch pic. And then will have to puzzle over whether to include the patches which I think are from later in the 1930's. But Ah'll Be Bahk.

No argument from me.

In my memory I feel pretty sure I've had champs which look like the one on the right. Maybe straight from the Bicentennial bag. Edit: My memory for color is suspect though, so ratchet that "pretty sure" down a few notches in translation.

That's what they say. I'm still a bit confused over whether that's a name for NLR's or Rainbos, in case this still turns out to be a Rainbo.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/181642238330 Does have a lemonade ox look. Oh, and I'll guess Champion ...... just for grins.

Which is which?

Yeah, Peerless Patches are the solid ones. Acme Realers are the ones you can see into with the fire (gold) inside, but I was sorta wondering of one or two non-black Realers might have slipped into the auction lots. 'nite!

*scratching head*

Ah. Well, they do look like Peltier glass. It's just that a single pair of ribbons is not typical.

I know right?! (lol) I'm easily stumpable. I'm glad you posted so many classics. They were fun to ID. ..... maybe it's just those views of those two red/blues which are throwing me off. Did someone else ID them already in your other threads? Maybe you could start an ID thread just for them, with a few views. Were they part of your old lot? Edit: with Cheese in the room, feel free to post them in this thread. I just suggested a new thread to be sure you'd have others looking at 'em.
