x 2, Agree w/ Liam, Akro slag

"I'm" seeing Akro as well ??

Nice one William !! A real piece of Americana !!

I used to hang out with a bottle digger named Bill who has since passed. He had a lot of old whiskey jugs, elixirs, embossed, and Dr. Pepper. I did learn one thing about Dr. pepper hanging out w/ him, the oldest original soda pop in the U.S.

There is av in the black ribbons just the heavy pocket wear makes it hard to see. Only one marble that looks like that, well out of my reach or at least what I'd pay for one "It is the real deal" the seller is Sami Arim the one who wrote the new book " Peltier Marbles an American Legend" I can't make out any green Dave, probably just the camera angle.

The clock is tickin, Hmm, last day, let's see ?? Marbaholic or Fishaholic ?? The tension builds

Alright man, Fantastic Tommy !! Ya got some real beauties !!

"Happy Thüringen Thursday" A slightly banded Carmel Swirl ( Both measure around 25/32nds) I believe this to be a Custard Swirl, at least that's what I call it.

Phil McGlothin, sadly he passed on May 10 2019 LINK : https://www.tributearchive.com/obituaries/4395244/Phillip-McGlothin

Nice Vitro's Liam, after many years I'm finally starting to get into them a bit more, they made some beautiful examples for sure !!

Just caught this new vid Stephen Bahr put out on YouTube last night & thought you'd enjoy it & it may answer a couple questions on glass & it's production for you as well as raise some, only a bit of marble production footage but some very historic clips on glass manufacture & uses !!

"Happy West Virginia Wednesday"

No wonder I'm only finding one at a time Josh, you've cornered the market Although being here on the West coast may also play a role in it. Nobody here even knows what they are but a few I gander ?? I do have to admit I did run into a bunch of them some years ago and paid then no nevermind, "just some more cats" I thought, so, live & learn !!

Yesir !! ..... .....

It may have av. Dennis but w/ a damaged surface it'll make it nearly impossible to see even w/ a loupe.

I see some nice NLR's Dennis Peltier NLR Burnt Christmas tree Looks like an NLR wasp or Tiger ?? is there aventurine in the black ribbons ?? Superman The rest look to all be Pelt. Rainbo's including the yellow one. You certainly have a good start !!

So am I !! Confusing to say the least !!

They vary Brad, I have some w/ 6, I think they call those 6 finger, not to be confused w/ 6 finger Vitro (although the "name game" can get that way)

Slipped my mind !! But I will definitely be going to have a look see.

Thanks William

Yes !! I see Heaton in all four Bonnie, I'm curious , did you purchase some from any of the digs ?? I see a lot w/ fractures ??

Jabo ??

x 2, Agree .. Pelt Rainbo

Didn't know that William, we have white & green sturgeon here. All green sturgeon must be released unharmed in the water(they're on the endangered species list so a big fine for taking them out of the drink) We have to use barbless hooks so it's usually very easy. On the White sturgeon we have a yearly quota now, barbless hook only and only on certain days, the size slot is 45" - 52". When was a kid it was barbed hooks and the size limit was 36" - 6 foot, 3 per day, now we get only 2 per year. They used to be considered garbage fish and when the salmon fishermen caught them in their nets they dispatched them w/ a sledgehammer. Some of the best eating fish in the river, they range from here to Alaska and have even been caught over near Japan, so most are ocean going but always return to fresh water to spawn. Drat, probably good eating too !!
