LOL, Windy, too cute. do you Magic Eye?
if anyone doesn't see the polar bear, they're the ones on acid.

Bump - and moving it to the main area. Feel free to post your handmades over there. There are some handmade collectors who don't think to check in the ID forum because it has mostly machinemade marbles.

Magnifying glass in one hand, camera in the other, marbles all over the place, and running from room to room taking pictures before the sun goes down. It is a sight to behold.
lol - i wouldn't know anything about that ....
a star followed by 3 dots?

On what continent do ya'll think it was made? Is it American?
-
Hello, Wilmena. Welcome.
I'm going to move this over to the main section in the hopes that a contemporary collector might recognize the makers.

Happy Mike Day!!!!!

I still don't feel I know what a calligraphy alley is. Still feels as if the name is applied with a broad brush. (pun intended

What Edna said.
However, that said, I'd be inclined to think those could be Alleys. He did do some digging/poking around there, right?

7/8"?
That's really sumthin!

p.s., he might be related to the eagle bennie seller. He has sold some of that person's signature pieces. Any ceramics he might offer are thus extra suspicious. (I'm looking at the AMT compartment that box I write this. And now at the icky looking "bennies" in his mixed lot currently for sale.)

yah, I've heard from someone else that they're the same. Need to add that name to whatever lists we have.

yeah that kinda sounds right - thanks.

Anyone remember the Jabo Ghost? That's a neat marble. ... am I remembering the name right?

that's some fun reading. "After you pay for this little jewel I will hand deliver it. Your child is worth it. Then I will give him or her a few lessons if I can."
here's a link:

This feedback is now on his page.
. Seller took photo from another site. Seller DID NOT have the marble he listed.However, in theory the creep can have it removed because he's never going to receive payment from me.

hubba hubba!

What does this mean? Why give a positive?
. Dead Seller 10+ days NO RESPONSE BACK, BAD BAD BAD -
Here is a photo which was posted by "lmtfi" in the calligraphy thead I started at Marble Mental in 2007:
He gave it as an example of what would have been called a calligraphy marble "back in the day". He contrasted that with the Alleys and Ravenswoods which had been posted above him.
I'll underline that part: not all the calligraphy marble examples posted were Alleys.
Overall there were some quite different looking marbles given as examples. The moral of the thread as expressed by Elizabeth turned out to be "calligraphy is in the eye of the beholder".

Thanks Mike. Curious what puts the 2nd one into the calligraphy category.
p.s., hoping someone can donate some pix to the thread. It will be a shame if folks search later for "calligraphy" and all they get are some expired links. Chuck? anyone?

Great!
Yesterday when they were talking to me they were treating me like I was the problem (since I wasn't going to pay) and they didn't seem to see anything to suggest that he was the bad guy rather than me. After all he had a 99.1% feedback so he must be okay. As a non-payer I'm not able to file a claim and if I even get as far as negging him he can petition to have it removed. They wanted me to pay the $717 and then trust their appeals process to get it back - if I won my case.
I hope you nailed this shut with your claim, but in case not I hope that others will file too - and leave negs! In case he slips back on. aaargh.
