The size of this one is interesting... bigger than normal, but not as big as the "big" ones...

Any ideas? Cobalt is translucent, white is milk white. Nothing all that outstanding... but it caught my eye out of my blue group.

The white part reacts under bluelight....

I actually have 8... but two are a bit different...

The middle one here, and the one on the lower left are different... but still in the same color range.

Hey.... is that a black and orange one like mine????

Yep... I can 100% say that everything (the "normal" marbles) in my collection is from 1954 or before... and likely much older!!

It is about 74 degrees here today and now I have a craving for sherbert.

The white swirl actually goes into the marble a ways...

I have this in my "brown and amber" pile... it is a nice deep honey color.

Pea-wee...

Again... the only one I have like it... I think.

We are having BBQ ribs for dinner... these make me want some mints...

Those honey amber ones are yummy...

I need to check my blues...

Pretty clear.

Is this common?

I think this is the only one I have like this...

Some have interesting interiors... like this pretty green one... with a bubble on it like a rain drop on a leaf.

I have now separated them out from my cat eyes... I am warming up to them...

I haven't decided on mine yet.

Steph's thread inspired me to dig out my marbles ... and I found an ugly one like hers... LOL... is this a banana?

HAHAHAHA. "Ugly." Kinda reminds me of things I step on on a rainy day.

But all the interest in bananas and cats has me opening back up my box...

Golly gee... these are heavenly.

Is that a single ribbon of white on the shinier one? Does it try to cork around the marble at all? I recently had a black and white akro corkscrew that looked similar, but I would have to see more angles to be sure

There are actually two white ribbons. There is another angle or two in the links...

Gosh... I am thirsty now.

Funny... Bear Bear came from a "feral" cat I called "momma san." I had her fixed and her kitties. The father(s) were two black "brothers." Such TOMS!! OMG. Momma San was so sweet. Bear, and her sister, Boo, were cool cats. Bear talked... "bear bear... " "meow meow." I do miss cats... I don't miss litter boxes... LOL.
