Patty flew to California yesterday too see her oldest son for the first time in 12 years, so I guess you can say were both on vacation! 😁 Love shots from the plane looking down at the world, in this case, over Colorado. Also pictured is one with one of her pilots and a very nice gentleman from Nigeria on his way home too take his family his earnings 😊 Hooked up with her son last night, while I was talking to her he approached too pick her up. Quite the tearjerker as I was on speaker as they embraced. What a moment. Hopefully more pics too come!

Too bad Miken has never did this with their error softball bats. Wrong kevlar sleeve, wrong mold, wrong mandrel, any errors in process found down the line are just marked "blems" and sold at discount Alot of this decision was based on performance issues but some blem products over the years I know they could have labeled a "hybrid" of some sort and sold for profit. Anyway, errors at discount rates or otherwise is the better option versus scrap 😊

Better shots of the mibs...

Cool Cats in original packaging I picked up yesterday 😊

I thought I would put a little more focus on the first German I ever found, highlighting the interior as best as I possibly could so as too see it's design. At least I got some better shots of the colors. Man, has he been through some wars! Happy Thuringen Thursday!

Tom Mosser began working at Cambridge Glass in Ohio as a teenager until it's closing in 1954. He spent some time gathering the necessary equipment to manufacture glassware out of a chicken coop and once he got the ball rolling, started the company called Variety Glass, I believe in 1959. In 1971, he started the Mosser Glass company, a somewhat small company currently employing around 30 people. Interesting history once I researched it! This mini plate was produced in the 70's from what I gather, and there are quite a few out there in an abundance of colors. Only dropped $5 on it, pretty cool little piece 😊

I love the black tracing...

Thanks,Al! I grabbed em 😊

A few of the mibs so far from the jar, last one is .90

Scored a little bit today....

Nice little lot 👍

Thanks for the input...at 18 apiece, I think I will snag them. Rarely run across original packaging around here.

Wasn't positive, but would consider this an "ID" requirement? Real deal?

A few others from the score, love the commons 😊

Little peewee I had in my little score this weekend 0.53

Welcome, Jeff! These folks are top notch, loved it since joining earlier this year. Have fun 😊

Pretty nice, Tommy! Popcorn, popcorn, get yer popcorn

Actually, they don't taste very good at all. They are basically a carp, and some folks do like smoked carp, but I think it depends on the species? They are considered an invasive species around here and generally get thrown back or used for cut bait. This fish has even made it inland too the trout streams! I've even seen some people just throw them in the woods for the critters! The last day out there is 31st, then they shut down until the Spring. Not sure if I will be back out there this month again or not? We'll see!

Thanks, folks!

Or maybe a Pelt peewee...

Size 0.54....I would have thought a game marble if it wasn't for the little dark thread...

These shots are a little darker...0.59
