  1. Believe me Ric, if I had to duplicate those Sulphide pics I took I don't think I could do it again. I canned well over 100 retakes before I got the camera to focus on the figure instead of the surface of the glass, if I remember right it had a lot to do with a combination of the correct wattage on the bulb & neutral background. I have to say, Sulphides are probably not only the most difficult marble I've ever had to photograph but the most difficult thing I've ever had to photograph period.
  2. I googled "Summit slag glass Oscar the lion" says & shows it's a paperweight not a lid like the Westmorland or Imperial pieces. According to the V circle stamp showing on the bottom it is "Summit" LINK : https://www.google.com/search?sxsrf=AOaemvK3GLlMzzlVrgRtvwNfEIPgbXQxow:1629990734871&source=univ&tbm=isch&q=summit+slag+glass+oscar+the+lion&sa= LINK : https://www.ddoty.com/makermarks.html
  3. Wish I could get more like that one Willian, good show, a little recoup from is better than none. Make for a great day at the float fishing (hint, hint)
  4. Don't feel like the "Lone Ranger" made the same mistake myself, let me join in ... ... now we can share the pain ... Nice pair of twin tri stage you got for the recoup at that yard sale the other day Bill Outstanding examples !! Oop !! better post a mib !!
  5. A few I picked up the other day, better individual pics are forthcoming (maybe??) I think the green might be an Imperial, sorry for the slip !!
  6. I believe the lion may be a Summit Glass Co. Product called "Oscar the lion" intended as a paperweight instead of a lid?? Not aware if Imperial & summit are linked or not ?? I googled "Imperial glass lion" & a slightly different looking lion was pictured & being used as a lid ?? I have to admit they are very similar except for the foot. & intended use.

    Vacation

    A landscaping "Super Genius"
  10. Part of a small lot I picked up last week, mostly Alley but a few pelts showed up.
  11. Looks like a Pelt Cherry bomb to me, definitely Pelt, Cherry Bombs usually (not always) come in a larger size, do you happen to have the measurements ?? Pic courtesy of the "Peltier Marbles info site" This is one I have, @ just over 3/4ths"
  12. x2, I agree, after looking at them half a dozen times they look foreign made to me also. They sure are some nice lookers, like a cross between Marble King & Akro !!
