Well, best I could do, had to bang off a bunch of pix quick to keep the auto focus from adjusting, yea I couldn't shut it down all the way. So a clue w/ the first pic :: This only comes in a Pee-Wee !! I hope this isn't to easy ??

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY DUSTIN" @leatSOUND

My best Handmade German Peppermint Swirl for this "Sundays Best"

x4

Nice mibs Brad !!

Dope !! now I gotta take some Blurry pix, will probably be tomorrow mornin, almost midnight now. "Good grief" just tried to get some quick blurry pix but the Sony Handycam I use for all my pix has an auto focus function I'm gonna have to work on turnin off. Went to the menu, no such animal, I'm sure there's a way to disable it (maybe?) Now I'll be @ this all night till I get it figured out !! 12 : 20 Finally figured out how to disable the auto focus, now it's so blurry you can't even tell there's a marble there, I never thought it would be this hard to take a "Blurry" shot. Didn't have any trouble doing it when I was trying to take a good one ?? I'll have something for ya by morning.

Did =you just getv that big brown slag ??

RECAP Time :: Still having 80 - 90 degree days, everything is fried. Just a bit of fire showing on a few trees due to the shortening days, Supposedly a frost is coming @ the end of next week, hopefully the chlorophyll will begin to come out of the leaves in the trees & some great fiery colors will begin to appear 🤞 The construction is advancing quickly, around the corner, dug, plumbed, filled & almost to my house. I also see the tall orange flowers to the left of the excavator beginning to wane, they were like 9 feet tall, maybe I'll stroll over there and get a closeup before they're gone ?? (maybe)

Williams gonna have the biggest garden in the county next year ..... .... and a whole load of freshly dug mibs :: William Skaggs - AKA "The Human Rototiller"

Peltier Wolverine

A Peltier Rebel from my 09 auction for this "Slags and Swirls Saturday" though you can't see it very well there is more than a moderate amount of av in the black ribbons, Pelt swirls like this are a bit on the HTF side. Another Pelt for this "Slags and Swirls Saturday" a Pelt Christmas tree, again swirl style and even harder to find w/ the olive colored ribbons.

"Welcome to Marble Connection Betsy" Nice pix, many years of combined marble & marble related knowledge here and people more than happy to share what they know. Again "Welcome"

I was @ the store, came back and this what happens, I been se up !! ... ... To tell ya the truth a German Striped was the last thing on my list. C'mon Chuck, an easy one, Please ?? For my sake !! ...

Even w/ the greenish base I'm still up for Alley on all

I was gonna just post all the known manufacturers "but" we'll be there by a process of elimination soon enough (maybe?) I'm delaying taking pix for the same reason as you "if I ever win again ?"

Yeah !! Now who wouldn't have known what that is ... Me ...

Is there oxblood ?

Dope, time to recompute more of what I don't know ....

Took me some serious diggin Dave, I have a few more pix ?? Here's a couple links, info on them is very limited indeed, has always been that way because of their scarcity, @ least IMO.

100% Popeye, never heard of any stipulation as to the amount of transparent clear base it has to have just that it has it. The qualifiers to be a Popeye as far as I know are a transparent clear base w/ whispy white strands running through it and @ least 2 other opaque colors. I'll post a tight stranded one and a thinner one. Even distribution of the white strands in the clear base seem to be the ideal $$ mib, but all perspective. OP Popeye, you can see the clear transparent base. A couple of mine Thin dispersal of the white stranding, my faves This ones a whole lot closer to the example in the OP

Well ? Now I'm thinkin ....

Here's some ade pics for ya Dave, been savin em for years. Only the second patch mib is mine, the rest of the pix I had saved in a folder. In all these years I've only had 2 Akro blueberry patches, so VVHTF @ least for me. BTW nice cork, BB ade IMO Blueberry ade cork Blueberry ade patch Another Akro blueberry ade patch

Master ?

Spiderman Blended Marble King Rainbo ?

"Thanks David" I've only seen 2 powder blue in hand myself and only of which I owned, the 11/16ths I got it along w/ the set as an extra.
