You should give credit to the sources of the photos. You don't usually need permission. I guess there are always exceptions. But sounds like you're talking about the sort of thing people do fairly casually without anyone getting upset.

One of the things going on is that the air isn't attached to the glass in the way glasses with different COE's would be attached to each other.

I do not rock. I prefer a mellow ballad. I didn't ask anything which wasn't in Chordus' original question.

The CoE of air? I'd assume it was significantly different from glass. However, I'd also assume that any pressures and strains from the air on the glass are negligible. That as the marble cooled the air would easily compress into whatever space was available without straining the glass around it.

Very strange. Seen any of these before? How does it reproduce? (lol, sorry, got caught up in the rare species motif)

the marbles

All-Reds Had trouble finding a pic of some basic all-reds. So here they are. Next time I won't! Ebay auction pic.

Wow. That hit my jaw like a wedge of lemon. (that's a compliment. lol)

Here is an interesting biographical piece. It has errors. For example the birthdate is wrong, and one glaring omission is his affiliation with Rosenthal. But it's still kinda cool. The radio information is new to me. I'm inclined to believe that part's true. My transcription from the book isn't perfect. I didn't have a good copy to look at. I might try to clean it up later. Who's Who in American Jewry, Vol. 3 Julius Schwartz, Solomon Aaron Kaye, John Simons Jewish Biographical Bureau, 1939 p. 815

No, thank YOU!

Love the board! Oh and the marbles aren't bad either. ;-)

Totally okay! Easier to see. No problemo! (p.s., welcome )

Thanks Chuck!

No. Too white. P.s., if someone posted that for ID my guess might have been Akro on that one.

Alley on the Bull's Eye bag. According to the latest and most consistent information I've heard. The Pressman/Alley connection was a strong one.

When Don posted this one I got the feeling that it might be unusual. I don't know though. Master Made Bag

Thanks for the kudos! Been a rough day. And rougher for you than me. I liked that name game thread. Ran out of steam though. Am looking forward to the show and tell.

Blue Angel, Red Angel, Green Angel Photo by Mibcapper:

Here's a photo (Mibcapper's, I believe) which includes a green angel. They have a tan custardy base. I think they are essentially a six-ribbon marble, but sometimes it's hard to tell because of how the ribbons smear and split each other. I'm pretty sure it's not a vaseline base, at least I'm pretty sure the one red one I sold didn't have one. I think the blue angel was named first, by Smitty, after the Blue Angels flight squadron.

To me they look like they're right on the cusp.

A darning egg?

Worth waiting for! Beautiful!
