Sistersville Alley i scooped up at the Indy Marble Show last week.

this is a non-handgathered brick with 2 cutlines similar to those you see on akro patch marbles.

This is one of the top color combos to collect if you collect hybrid popeyes, especially in the 3/4" shooter size. I've seen smaller ones at 5/8", less than mint get about 300 at auction for one. The underbidder was at about $1000 on these. So, quite a big gap from the winning bid. Facebook bidding isn't like ebay where your top bid is hidden and goes up in increments for you conveniently. Whatever your top bid is, you must pay on National.

I like it.

Thats great news. Looking forward to it, i'll be there tomorrow morning through Saturday.

Room trading starts in 2 days folks. Please come out if you are in the area.

This Ravenswood "Solar Flare" has some. Yellow is a tough color to find on Ravenswood for sure.

The show is only 6 weeks away. If there is anybody close to the Portland, Oregon area, we'd love to have you come out.

Make your reservations, it's going to be a great one. Hope to see you there.

This year's show will be replacing the usual Seattle, WA show location. Make your reservations. Hope to see you there.

The cigarette card on that postcard is very old, 1888-89 (Duke's Cigarettes). It was one in a series called "The Terrors of America and Their Doings".

This show is in the Los Angeles area, near the LAX. Room trading starts in less than 3 weeks. Hope to see you there.

Unfortunately, none of these are Peltier Marbles. The Peltier Green Jewel or Emerald Jewel has 6 ribbons like a National Line Rainbo. I posted an example of one of mine below.

It's a Vitro Superior type marble.

Gettin an early start 😄. Didn't realize how much i liked Ravenswood Paul Bunyan marbles until i filled a box with them.

i call this one "Snowy Day"
