Alley Superman LINK : https://www.allaboutmarbles.com/viewtopic.php?t=20375 Alley, Peltier & Akro are the only companies I'm aware of that made the (collector named) Superman mibs.. Never seen one made by Champion but I guess ya never know I recognize the Peltier Superman pic you show as being from my Friend Terry Middleton's ( http://grandpamarble.com/ ) store site. Alley agate Superman ; A couple Peltier supermen ; Some Akro Superman corkscrews ;
-
Yes, an Akro Superman Peltier & Alley also have mibs named "Superman" they look a little different but have the same color scheme i.e. (R) (Y) (B)
-
Love them solid cores David !!
-
The only full set I ever owned, a set of solid cores I had some years ago. All mibs are 11/16ths or better w/ many same cane. I believe the mibs were all original to the set for the fact of all the same canes present, but no real way to tell. A few of my favorite colored cores

Nice Brother !! Be careful, don't cut yerself !!
-
I never did get to go back to the neighbors house, he made it stick !! As said, lesson learned !!
-
It's a commercial made float from one of the shops for the tourists. I had it given to me.
-
Hang on I'll measure the one in the pic ; 10" right on the money !! So a little smaller but the weight is incredible. I could have bought a way bigger one but wanted to reduce the chance of any breakage as much as I could, probably overkill ??
-
Guess I better include "tiny Tim" Oop !! one more, bet you can guess what this is ?? We had a lot of em as kids, of course it was only minutes till they were lost, a good reason for Dad to buy in quantity.

I had a BB gun fight w/ the neighbor, I had a Benjamin pump pellet gun and he had a one pump daisy, you can guess who won. I call it my "one shot wonder" Later that day as his Father was digging the pellet out he banned me from his house for life.

Time to bust out the "Big Boys" An old tinted Blue glass Japanese fishing net float. Covered in what's called "oil netting" . The thing is really heavy, the glass must be around 1/4" thick in the thin spots. I got it at the coast from a vendor Friend of mine for my Sister who collects floats. You oughta be well associated w/ these Brad, probably picked one up off the beach, though it's a very, very rare occasion anymore to find an original float like this one.

Guess I could call this a "fountain marble" though it's not made of glass but acrylic. They tore out the old fountain at the hospital and this is what was used to splay out the water at the top. A lucky find "I guess"
