X2, Akro Patch

x2

(L) to (R) Peltier-Alley

x2, foreign, probably an Asian made

One end looks like a melted pigtail and the other looks unfinished, probably late Victorian, i.e. 1870-1910 ?? Faceting on one end would indicate an earlier manufacture date i.e. 1850-1870

I see Master as well Gladys, nice mib !!

I'll vote Imperial (foreign)

Maybe we need to buy some oil paint and felt markers ??

My Mothers favorite shooter from her childhood she gave me when I was 10, a little better shape & I might be able to tell the manufacturer, one side does have a bit of feathering so Pelt ?? maybe Akro ?? Either way a warrior that'll never leave home.

Kool Mib Tommy

Man I woulda had em open on the way home !! Don't know how ya do it ??

You're right on the money from what I see. The seller says "Vintage hand painted" I'm guessing "vintage" could mean just about anything except antique ??

"Happy Thüringen Thursday" An onionskin w/ mica, a bit of ware but @ well over 2" I'm not complaining

"Peltier Zebra" the black ribbons do have a small amount of av. in this one.

x2, agree w/ Alley

Now I know why Danni and Ernie didn't like em, I was really ready to jump on the Master Train !!

Thanks for the update Jeff !!

Akro, the "crimp marks" you see are common to older Akro & have the collector name "eyelashes" They are "shear marks" from where the hot glob was cut during production, i.e. "dull shears"

Not positive but from the pix they all look like Alley corals ??

Had our first day of sun yesterday, it peeked out about noon, a pleasant surprise when it reached near 70. I spent the morning peeling the rust off from this Winter.

I see Vitro as well

x2, agree w/ Pelt slag, i.e. (onyx)

Killer drizzle Bill

Agree fully, a reason why I spent hours on my deck w/ piles of mibs in the afternoon sunlight. I try to have both a sunlight pic & an indoor pic to show the contrast in lighting when I post. When I set up my lighting for pix I try to be as close to natural sunlight as I can. Of course I haven't taken pix of every one of them in the sun which is evident by some of my posts. Spring is in the air. We had our first sunny day above 70f today, felt like 80 but I'm not gonna complain.
