My thank you note was returned to sender. I knew the name wouldn't be recognized by the post office but I keep getting mail for people who don't live here so I hoped this mail would still get through even with the pseudonym. Oh well .... hope whoever it was realizes how grateful and delighted I was/am/would be.

Hello! Long time. Nice colors. I'm thinking Alley now.

oh my

Ummmm .... I think maybe when you deleted the other post you picture might have disappeared from this one too?

What? Oooooh .... I get it!

More wallpaper!

The ends of the corkscrew ribbon would be at the seams. But the seams might not be as conspicuous on corks. And if you do have a cork then the cork ribbon is usually so distinctive seams aren't necessary to see. And the ribbon is so dominant that it does give the marble a natural "top" and "bottom" which you might be likely to refer to instead of calling it a "seam". No "pontil" on corks. Corkscrews are machine made marbles. Pontils generally refer to marks on the ends of handmade marbles. Up to you which end you call top or bottom on a cork.

Listening to a "50's Pop" infomercial/fundraising show on PBS. Didn't realize how many of my favorites were from the 50's. Hey ... I was young then. (*cough cough*)

Can you imagine Jim Morrison at 71?

Thank you for sharing, Griff.

Loving it some more.

That blue, green and black looks familiar.

What do you estimate such a paperweight would be worth? And how would that differ from the marble version?

Oh noes ... none of my marbles on this page. *sheepish* I've still only taken a few pictures.

That's teh awesome, Alan. Thanks! lol Saving!

Bullet molds!

Hello Dan. Welcome. Might need another picture to make sure. From this view, that looks like a Peltier Rainbo. From that view it looks like a style which was introduced in the 1930's.

... I call them my Dali sparklers. Don't have the photoshop skills but I got lucky with the background.

I've already misplaced my itty new sparkler. And my itty new lutzes. *eek* Please post some of your sparklers. I will be back when I've found my marbles.

This is starting to make sense to me.

So, these are the marbles I'm guessing yours could be: http://marbleconnection.com/topic/15140-vitro-cosmic-rainbow
