  1. My best guess is Alley on this one, very hard to capture the flame "type" pattern, I really had to use a low wattage light @ a tad over 9/16ths, came w/ a bunch of other gamers I have. I always look through everything w/ a bright light and hit it @ least once w/ the uv.
  2. I was looking at that one to ? I've seen them w/ very light mica before, the "mica" in this one looks a bit funky ?? And I'm not seeing the "pontil mark" they're trying to point out. I looked at the rest of his marbles and don't see any Germans ?? Hmm ??
  3. An Alley swirl for this "Sundays' Best" I have lost track of what I've posted and what I haven't by skipping around my pix, so if this is a repost ....... Take that Aaarrr..... In the 70's next week, yee haw !!!! Gonna see some sunshine finally

    Agree, W. VA, swirls, and yes most look like Alleys ? I do see what looks like a nice alley flame.
  5. A great book, I 've used it extensively.
  6. I have 2 ??? Never thought they'd get that high this soon !!
  7. No problemo Hope the link helps ya out a bit.
  8. The seller relisted the pelt book, two days left, musta had a, non payer ?? LINK : https://www.ebay.com/itm/125204289923
  9. Yes, it appears to have one large piece of "oven brick" w/ several smaller pieces "floating" around in it also.
  10. Good call Jeremy !! looks like yellow swirls on a blue base to me, I posted the Vacor I.D. link and a pic of the yellow based blue ribboned Blue tang also. LINK : https://www.billes-en-tete.com/liste_billes.php?lang=en
  11. Nice old onionskin, I see it's also lobed, too bad it's damaged, still they're beautiful marbles. If you want to see it a bit better put it in a glass of water, it won't fix anything but it will reveal a bit more if how the marble looked in it's heyday. Handmades weren't the first marbles I had but they were the first ones I collected.
  12. Agree w/ Ric, Repro Bag.

    ???

    Agree, Alley drizzle
  14. Found and interesting couple of old ad pages for sale on Ebay, Not only mibs listed but also one of the collapsible aluminum cups William showed. Now we have a date going back to at least 1920.

  15. A bit of everything, Marble king< Akro a few west Virginia swirls and I do believe I see a Peltier Comic i.e. BIMBO which was BETTY BOOP'S dog (also a pelt comic mib) yellow base w/ a green or red patch ?? Here's mine for comparison
  16. "Happy Thüringen Thursday" @ just under 7/16ths, well below the 1/2" mark, the smallest mica I have.
  17. Perfect name for it Jason, not a conventional bullseye for sure.
