Jabos got me into this mess too, Bob. I bought them and liked them and then someone told me they weren't the kinds of marble which marble collectors wanted .... so I had to figure out what I was missing ..... That was a more innocent time, wasn't it.

Everybody sing!

I sooooo wanted this "stick figure" to mean something special.

Welcome, Jesse.

The reason I wondered if it was a jasper type is because I thought I saw someone post similar looking marbles but which may have had a different origin than jaspers. I should check that out, huh?

I think I could do the lurch. *runs to try it*

I think so, Ric, but I'm not sure. What is yours? Jasper or ???

oooooooooooooh

I have it labelled as Thornburgh 1995.

D'oh .... I just now figured out the d'oh pun. arrrrrrr

Great pic.

Awwwww, happy birthday Fritzy! May today be marbulous, or birdulous, or whatever it is you like to play with!

Thanks! Nice to hear the rest of the story.

How did you come by this box, Mike? Anyone know how to send the bat signal out to Craig?

These are some of the bottoms I have pictures of. (And the inside of one top.) The first is an illustration from the letter introducing Imperials in January 1929.
