Fun group there.
I might have guessed Japanese on that last one. Well actually, I probably would have guessed American. But then for my second guess maybe Japanese. But now I want to know more about marbles from South America, don't you?
I only have one and mine's one of the fakes or otherwise newer bottles.
I had a nice exchange about it with someone at a bottle collecting page. I think this might be the page I was looking at: http://www.codds-n-odds.co.uk/index.html
I saw that commercial yesterday and was jealous.
I wish we had floors where kitties can play. We had a floor like that before we moved here. When things rolled off they went to an accessible corner that the cats loved. Here things roll to spots with carpet or under the piano and aren't fun anymore.
Hi Diane. Is this the link?

Oh, I see what you mean.
I didn't notice they were actually the same. The computer only accepts it one way and I didn't notice they were exact matches in shape.
What are some rare marbles?
And what do you think are the rarest?
Scenic chinas
Bird cages
Can you think of anything more rare than those?
How rare are lightning strikes?
Yes, thank you. I still don't have visual confirmation of the marble, or any info on its size or condition, but for right now my friend is very happy and at least knows to take good care of it.
