I didn't really pay attention to this type of marble until a month ago. MarbleAlan's site has some pretty great info I obviously basically skipped including advertisements possibly showing machine mades. It looked to me like it may have been G. Kuhnhert who made them instead of Seppenhutte. I need to read and look it over some more.

Great info!

H.E. Hopf Marble Factory (Spielwarenfabrik) was/is in Coburg Germany per the Greenberg book. I have no clue about when they began in Germany.

I am wondering how we upheld a US Patent against copyright infringement in Germany back then, unless the high price they paid was our defeat of them in WW2. If they paid a fine that would be on record and would be some great info to find

The "bags" were made in West Germany
-
Those are Veiliglas in the mesh bags. Those are the very ones bagged by H.E. Hopf I mentioned that caused the confusion Note: I was remembering wrong about the company/jobber who packaged these. Not H.E. Hopf but Shackman.

The only German machine made company I have heard a hint about is H.E. Hopf. They were talked about in one of the marble books. This is the same company that netted some Veiliglas marbles for sale. They caused the confusion about Veiliglas being made in Germany as that is what is written on those mesh bags. I have one of these bags in my collection. They made various clay marbles and supposedly one of the Alley machines made its way to Germany under its ownership. Definitely want to try to learn more about this company to figure out what they made in terms of glass marbles.

Does anybody have any idea about the name of the company that made these?
-
Who do we believe actually made these? Are these early Veiliglas marbles or made by somebody else?
-
-
These two I am posting were sold as old German machine mades. Don't really know how to classify them or attribute correctly.

Paint?

Found a photo of an Alley Pink Lady PATCH. They really did make at least one patch. Next: purple and pink

any chance we can see it next to a ruler or meter stick just so we all can feel at piece with the size. meter stick--haha I am an ignorant American.

You're on a desert island ....
Nantucketdink replied to DINDO's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
A whole lot of Corning glass fiberglass marbles to melt down and make a boat hull with to get off that island. -
Great link with great copyrighted photos.

Enjoy the lamp! Screw a lightbulb in and put it to work (if wiring is still good which it probably is). That is a very nice piece! Nice grab.
-
Where is this lamp for sale? They are extremely special. Ron can have first shot of course if that is what he asked.

They used to use apples to get the nice ruby red color in some Champions. right? I remember reading that entertaining story. Do you all know how many felines gave their lives over the years in Japan just so America could continue to enjoy our cats eyes. I believe the formula was 50 eyeballs per pound of base glass.
