  3. Brother in law is getting his Black Bass fillet today along with some bonus Catfish fillets which will go well with his Budweiser beer battered Jumbo 🍤
  4. Well, Stacey didn't fish, but her husband Al did. Caught his Walleye limit. No pics 😡
  5. Saw this piece today...Blenko? I saw it was marked as such and thought I would share 😊
  6. www.cardlines.com has information based on Fanatics, a company in Jacksonville, Florida that has secured the rights for production for the NFL, NBA, MLB, among others. Topps and Panini are still in business, but it would appear that Fanatics is cornering the market for Sports products....
  7. Man oh man, deja vu, same thing with the sports card world back in the late 90's early 2000's. There was a big boom in sales and prices for boxes, cases, sets and singles. Then all of a sudden companies started popping up everywhere. Before long, the market for sports trading cards was oversaturated and it crashed. The only ones worth any substantial money were short prints and graded cards. That fizzled too. Now, most of those brands are gone and Panini was running the "show". Now, with Covid19 happening last year, the market exploded again. It's still strong now, with records being set for sales at auction and online, but it will probably calm down sometime soon. I chose not to jump on the bandwagon by selling any of mine. Now I have heard Panini is selling its "brand", which I haven't had time to pursue this rumor. Yep, the almighty dollar for ya 😐
  8. Nice group of Red variations and your welcome! I pondered ideas for a while before sharing my final idea at Chad for his thoughts about it. Being as it was going to be another weekly thing, I preferred an opinion before going forward with it. Also thought that it opened the door for other marbles/companies that I didn't think had a place to "show off" their Slag or Swirl examples such as Vacor, Jabo, and maybe some of our International counterparts. Glad it's well accepted forum 😊...
  9. All great mibs....like how the 1" backlights 😊
  10. Nice ones, Art...like the display you have them set up with too 👍
  11. Thank you so much for sharing that info 👍
  12. One more fun once a week category, with this one focusing on Slag and Swirl marbles. Covering a wide range of manufacturers both old and new, some Saturday fun for everyone 😊
  13. Houze...that puts a nice little twist on things. Looking further into it and thanks 😊
  14. And too correct myself, the "horse" was actually one of the dogs after closer inspection 😁
  15. I saw another lion, two different kinds of dogs, and an owl online. I'm questioning whether the owl ashtray is Akro, I suspect it is something else, but the others are. This one isn't marked either, but I'll tell ya, would be nice to get this one for $20! Thanks, Bruce 😊
