  1. Plain Jane green but clean and well over 1", one w/ a swirling ghost core. 1.27 & 1.30 " respectively. I forgot you'll be seeing a clear pee-wee when I start a topic on pee-wee's.
  2. Wish I could get my hand's on some more, they made some unreal flame pattern mib's as well as some very colorful swirls.
  3. Here's a bronze and a blue, the bronze is covered in chocolaty colored ribbon's with blue green and bronze flec's of av on the white. The blue isn't a real killer but 90% of the av is blue, couldn't get it to show really good in the pic, should've went out in the sun. I have one with absolutely no av and another lightly coated.
  4. Some light up display's I made for onionskin's or whatever mib you have, must be over 1.5" not to drop through the hole.
  5. Rotten , still passing stone's, yes I said stone's, the Dr. didn't break it up very good ,made 4 smaller out of one giant I'm hurtin for certain but I'm still here. I passed 2 today but not out of the wood's yet. "Thank's for the concern."
  6. I have so much on the burner my entire stove has become a nuclear reactor, i know I'll never catch up so I'll just make it a fun ride while I'm here. I know exactly where your coming from. What does come first ?? I just found more pic's and marble's I haven't photoed yet. I guess this is why I love this hobby so much, never a dull moment.
  7. I like them both Steph, thank you for the info, I always collected marble's because I liked it not anybody else. People still laugh and i laugh right back at them. Perspective ,all in the eye of the beholder, I don't laugh at anyone anymore.Uh oh here we go again
  8. I'm glad you disagree, I knew that guy who told me that story went contrary to everything I had already learned. What you have stated is the truth I've always went with. Just goes to show ya allot of money and marble's don't make the story any truer, if it walk's like a duck and talk's like a duck, "it's a duck" No matter how pretty the feather's or eloquent the speech, it all come's out quack, quack in the end. Thanks' Steph ( I like the mib's w/ the lashe's better. P.S. the mib I have pictured is nearly 1" and glow's like the sun, therefore a lemonade patch ( i think). I'll take a pic for ya. Maybe I'm wrong again but moss agate's have a silver milky ace base and don't glow, and ade's be it lemon, lime or cherry, or a blueberry have the uv ade ( depleted uranium ) base glass, they glow. Are there example's of moss agates that glow ?? I'm here to learn let er rip I have moss agate's that look exactly like this one but have a more silver base glass and don't glow. !! I know these bulb's I have make certain color's look pretty funky.
  9. That was a little to quick, I have an alley wall that look's almost like it, Oh yeah " Atta girl " That's 1 for you !
  10. this is one of three I have, the other two are orange gamer's. ( AS NOT TO MISLEAD ANYONE THIS MARBLE IS CALLED A CHAMPION RED CLOUD, NOT A FURNACE MIB)
  11. I've had this one 4 or five year's, still the only one like it I've seen. Seen the cloudy class version and the clear glass version, hope this something new for you to.
  12. Ok what kind of mib is it ??? A big atta boy ( or girl) to the winner SOLVED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  13. I remember it's quite simple, but the game was in one of my forget me allot spot's, I haven't remastered it yet but with a little encouragement I'm sure I will. But for now I'm stating a resounding ( i don't know how 😖 )
  14. Here are some of my fave's, yes I do collect them, after all they are peltier. The last pair is 9/16th's, I am working on a post for all pelt 9/16th's
  15. Undeniably a c.a.c., is this mib to be considered a diaper fold ??
  16. I knew I posted to many pic's, I just posted a new subject on the Akro prefreese improvement, the removal of the lash, which this marble demonstrate's.
  17. Man I love old handmades " nice mib's Steph, I have 1 pee-wee lutz ribbon, baby blue like the one you have on the right, I 'll be posting that and the rest of my pee-wee's ( including the clearie's) soon
  18. Here's one that Akro made prior to the 1922 prefreese improvement, eliminating the marker.These lash marks where present on all their mib's prior to the introduction of the new (notice I didn't say better ) prefreese production. I have many example's,( as I am sure you do also ) it sure narrowed the estimated production date of the mib down quite a bit. Do you have a preference, and the date 1922 ?? do you agree ??
  19. I'm getting some new one's, a bigger super man, some really nice rooster tail's, 1 Alley flame, also an excellent old school reb., I had to wait for a bit for an extra busy mib's but it appear's my patience paid off, pic's soon as I get em. Wait I have 2 pic's now
  20. Thank you Al, Isn't that a killer caged, I love it. What do you think of the little red one ?? everyone I talked to about said it was German. Myself I don't think so. the only thing I know closest to a German cat eye is the teddy bear eye's they made for the toy market before their marble's ??
  21. This is almost of my related stuff (I think) Your collection is most impressive for a rebuild Ron, I enjoy looking as always, Thank's man I'M WONDERING ABOUT THE 2 FENCE CONNECTORS I HAVE PICTURED, ARE EITHER ONE ALLEY ?? ONE LOOK'S EXACTLY LIKE THE DUG EXAMPLE'S I'VE SEEN, EVEN HAS THE SAME AMT. OF RIB'S, I HOPE IT ISN'T WISHFUL THINKIN ON MY PART IF NOT I'M STILL KEEPIN THEM, ANYBODY HAVE ANY THOUGHT'S ??? ( THEY DO LOOK A BIT TOO GOOD )
  22. Ok Steph just for you I have about 100 or more clearies from .50 clear down to .27, even some crackle pee-wees , and about 15 German's I completely spaced off, the picture's are coming I promise.
  23. If you have Block's hardback it has probably 95% or better of known sulphide's, you will get the feel for them after you've seen a few, remember if it's questionable there's a reason !! Stanley as well as Bob's book's are a bit spendy, but some of the best referencing I've ever seen, well worth the money. If you get one authentic mib at a reasonable price the book's have already paid for themselves. Stan was a great marble enthusiast and promoter to the marble community, He is greatly missed. And him and Bob have probably saved me thousand's $$ If you go to Alans old site as he describes the questionable California sulphide's, new multiple figures, rare and unknown's w/ none of the for mentioned having the green fluorescence under uv. and yes their other fakes around just like everything else, you are wise to be cautious until your familiarity w/ them grow's.
