  1. "Happy Akro Friday" Trying a bit of the "Group Mentality" approach out today !!
  2. Salright Ron, I have some "not so good" days also, just hope I can keep my composure as well as some others ??
  3. Proof it melts in your mouth not in your hands ....
  4. A keepsake pinback from my Childhood hometown (7 miles away) back then the main event was beer pitcher races between bars w/ everyone on the sidewalk cheering the participants on "if they made it to the finish" there's a reason it was called "Rainier Daze"
  5. Some "marble related" pinback characters, most from "Syndicated Press Comics" made by Kellogs in the 40's, 95% of these are Peltier comic marble related, the Superman is Akro related as well. Superman, guess he could be Pelt or Akro related ?? Anyway all round & all marble related, even the size is !!
  6. Looks like "Alley" to me
  7. A gift from a great "Marble Friend" overseas in the Netherlands
  8. Nice one Dave, ghost core is a definite plus

  11. Really Reaching, Rubber armin it: Whoever you bought it from had the correct I.D. bullet mold "yes" but not positive about the Czech part !!
  12. There they are, sorry but I'm a bit to tired to take any pix tonight, "Thanks" for posting the pix Rick
  13. "Happy Thüringen Thursday" I probably already posted these, my baby Brothers favorite Antique marbles "Sulphides" he called the "Picture Marbles" commons but that's what I like. First a Donkey @ 2 & 1/16th" A super clean "Barnyard Pig" @ 1.54" w/ only the slightest bit of trapped air around the figure.
  14. A nice sized one @ that

    My Buddy

    A couple pix of the proud parents, I couldn't resist man, I love my kids. First the watchful Mother "Sissy" keeping an eye on baby Tubby A picture of the Proud Father (Buddy) w/ his son Tubby resting on his back, both taking a snooze after a couple hours of training Just before the break, more energy than you can shake a stick at. The King (Buddy)and his Queen (Sissy) boy I really miss Buddy, the smartest dog I ever had, even tried to talk like a human said "Ma Ma' clearly, sounded just like a child trying to communicate with his parents, maybe I should have called him "The Brain" and her "Pinky"
  16. Just about positive it's a "Bullet mold" (probably Czech) to much of a gap at the seam for a Christensen, plus the seam runs what appears to be all the way around the mib.
  17. I believe a 7up Rainbo is nearly an opaque (maybe semi translucent) green base w/ red & white ribbons ??
  18. Hey Dustin, Longtime no see !! I see a Pelt Rainbo

    My Buddy

    I lost my Bud about 9 years ago, pulled my hair out !! and yes cried. Now I have his son, Tubby & the mother Sissy, not looking foreword to either of their demise but know it looms nearer & nearer. No way to prepare for it just bite the bullet same as always (Just like my Kids) Funny how you can love them sooo much, the pleasure & love I Have derived from both of them will far outweigh the pain(I hope) Don't know if I can bear another Buddy or not ??? TUBBERS
  20. Almost every one I've seen is small, some have come close to 5/8ths but never hit the mark, some a bit smaller, nearer to pee-wee size (.50") than 9/16ths
  21. I knew that was a coffin, I couldn't make it out, ah guess I'll have to learn to use the mag !!
  22. I see a Bullet mold as well, is it small, say around 9/16ths ??
