Well fellow mibsters, looking forward to getting knocked out Kidney stones w/o any pain meds, hmm I don't know quite how to put it w/o saying something I shouldn't but *^$#$%^&* "ouch" I know I'll still be in pain when I awake from surgery & the anesthetic wears off but not nearly what I have been in since 3 AM this morning let alone since last Thursday. Needless to say you probably won't hear a peep from me until tomorrow. I wish you all well & I don't & wouldn't wish stones of any kind on anyone Say a prayer for me Brothers & Sisters 🙏 going to Nephrology next month to see if they can't put the cabosh on the way I'm hatching these things out every couple months, this ones a 7mm the last one in Feb was a centimeter caught in my bladder, that's a little bigger than a pea, December was I believe a 8 or 9mm 24/7 pain isn't good on the membrane

Vampire victims

Dope !! That's what I meant to say Steph, not sure where my mind was @

Alot of contemporaries mimic old Germans in style. Usually there will be some initials or a name and date @ one pontil end so you know the maker. These both appear to be cane made rather than being made with a torch.

"Welcome to Marble Connection" The first 4 pictures are contemporary handmades. The next 3 pictures appear to be an old German handmade Sulphide, place it in a glass of water if you want to see the figure more clearly. The next 2 are what appears to be a gaming marble & last but not least a Vacor Cardinal. Again "Welcome"

An old AVON marble ring in the box complete w/ interchangeable marbles. Yes the marbles are plastic, what they came w/ new. Just something I thought I should hang onto for this "Sundays Best"

A bunch but no pink base glass, yours is a bit on the rarer side indeed. LINK :: https://picclick.com/Toys-Hobbies/Marbles/?q=ribbon+lutz+marbles

I hope that is the proper translation Aiko

2:50 AM just got home from ER, yes stoned again. The unmistakable flank pain of a kidney stone, ah yes, they were in denial @ the ER, said I had no stones. I told the ER Dr. to take a second look about half way between the kidney and the bladder in the ureter. There she blows & I mean blows. I can take no pain meds due to another condition so until the holmium laser blaster comes from Seattle on Tuesday I'm stuck don't be surprised if you don't hear much from my ugly mug for a few days I was going to be a farmer until I examined my field, no dirt, all stones, maybe a cactus garden .... Ah well !! Might as well make the most of it Sharp little boogers aren't they

Good News for anyone wanting to have a box made by Phil. He called me this morning and gave me his new Email & the ok to post it.
