Interesting. Beautiful marbles. Fwiw, for some reason I wrote Hero down as a Master name back in 2008. Of course I knew it to be an Akro name but I still listed it as a Master name also for some reason. I'll try to reconstruct why I did that. American Machine-Made Marbles says that Master acquired unsold Akro marbles in 1951. I wouldn't have guessed those corks to still be in the Akro stock then, but could be.

That blue/yellow/red one is cool.

Perfect! *applause*

So fierce!

Agreed.

Welll ... it's a cool item. If it were mine, I would definitely hang onto it hoping for more clues to surface.

I believe that several of us communicated with the Phoenix police department last year. The case number I was given at the time was #612902. I sent a note to the officer I was in contact with, giving him a link to that auction and this thread.

Yeah, that seems like pretty sure thing. I was wondering if it might be a game piece. But it's pretty large. So

That's a puzzle.

Flattened? On two sides?

lol

Nice.

Those are sweet, Lloyd. That couple is WOW.

Is it a quail?

There is a recaption option at Cheezburger.com. I edited out the lolspeak of this one just for you.

Vintage was what I had in mind ....

Are there hundreds? Thousands? (Was just googling around looking for a boxer sulphide for Randy's thread and saw more different sulphides than I previously imagined were out there.)

What Rich said!

Luv the Zombie baby! (misspelling "lurv" for Bob's benefit ;-)

What a difference! Back to my pie.

A warm and safe Thanksgiving to all ....
