Chad G.

Go back to page 1, two killers yet to identify, final clues are in place, both dead giveaways.

Steph you where so close on your first guess !!! Looking very" Pelty " indeed !!!

Correct a "Peltier blue lagoon " "Atta boy" crack that whip !! SOLVED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't afford them anymore either, not on Soc. sec. pay, but I still manage to get a good one every now and then.

Wonder why those colors on the red face faded ?? end of run ?? short run ??? a mistake ?? Obviously not widely distributed like the rest of the Vitro line. Besides Akro I always thought them one of the more prolific producers around, @ least when I was a kid there was tons of vitro and Akro for sale at the country store, sling shot material. Wonder how many hundred dollar bills I threw @ those birds and chipmunks ?? My Brother and I even flung the mibs we got from Gramps at the local wildlife. Again Chuck thanks for the post, lots of new questions and a few new pics for my folders

What did they used to call those Alleys w/ metal in them kike that?? Wait they call em snakeskin now, used to be welding rod, not sure if that's how the metal got there or what ?? regardless some very nice mibs Chuck, never seen either one and I've been around almost as long as you, started in the late 80's w/ hand mades and pelts, think the reason I haven't seen a lot of some mibs is because of where I live or I was to wrapped up chasin some other marbles. Nothing in the wild anymore, hasn't been for years, only traces and what you buy online. I never even bought a mib from Ebay or anything like that till around 2013-2014 everything just seemed to slowly dry up ?? "Thanks for postin em Chuck", them's some killer mibs !!! I really like the metalic, nice and clean. Now where's my cut !!!!!!!!! Chad G.

Think I'll take my chances of falling through at the old city dump, or go to the court house and look @ the old city map for the homesteads and outhouse sites and dig w/ my bottle buddy !! Feeling old if not getting there yet !!! I don't know Chuck, "maybe" if you supply the flack jacket's, ammo and do the diggin ????? At least the title of this thread is right, ( Planning a marble " hunting " trip ) Chad G. Drop the shovels and give up them mibs, NOW !!

Hmmmm !! Sounds like some real "high dollar" mibs, Though you may have to "spend some time" before you get your hands on them !!

ANOTHER "BLUE" CLUE !!!!! FOR YOU !!!!!!!!!! REMEMBER, PUT ALL THE CLUES TOGETHETHER FOR THE ANSWER TO THE RIDDLE !!!

Not quite, remember it has av., not as if some cat's don't but no not a cat's eye, you're guess is very " close " Next page for another clue !!

A new one !!! A clue, it has aventurine in it !!!!!!

ONE MORE DAY , GUESS AWAY ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? THE FIRST MIB WILL BE REVEALED IN IT'S ENTIRETY, AS PROMISED THE 31st, BUT THE OTHER WILL REMAIN WITH A NEW CLUE !! I CAN'T SHOW ANY MORE OF THE REMAINING MARBLE ABOVE BUT THE NEW CLUE ON THE 31st SHOULD BE A DEAD GIVE AWAY

Yes I paid $500.00 for a German trans sub. 12 - 15 years ago, it looked pretty close to this one.

Nice German subs Roby, A little out of my price range though.

Yes I have a picture of one, I used to have one just like it but a little more color. yes very expensive, way to much for me !!!!!!

Yes, yours are all natural Roby, nice aggies, although more than likely machine ground and polished judging from the smooth reflection on the mibs, no visible rippling on the surface from hand faceting "thank you for the pictures".

Yes, please do !!!

Just talking about submarines on the other marble forum earlier. This is a picture of a CAC striped transparent submarine. The marble was a friend of mine's. Another CAC transparent submarine !!!! both marbles have several windows to see inside the mib. again used to be a friend of mines, way out of my price range on this one, rare marble in this color combination and condition.

Yes !!!! those are dyed agates !!!!! And some very nice ones @ that. I have only one green and the rest carnelian. I have some more carnelian but they're really beat. These would have been great dyed. I love the blue ones you have. I had an opportunity to get about 20 to 25 blue, some around an inch, pretty beat up but still beautiful. They changed their mind's at the last second and just wouldn't cut loose of them. I was a little disappointed but took it in stride and still continue looking !!

More ??????? 10 Akro corkscrews.

A very nice mib, it certainly looks to qualify, maybe another opinion on this one Roby !! people are rather opinionated on the subject of submarines.

10 assorted Vitro's

10 Akro pancakes and eggs, misshaped, misshapen mibs

Just click on the link below, sorry I didn't post this in the first place Chuck !!! https://old.buymarbles.com.buymarbles.com/marblealan/lauscha.html

These are the only 2 I have left, no black face I know but I was pleasantly surprised to find these.
