Your best marble display stand ideas
William replied to Chris Parson's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
I used to collect Marilyn Monroe years ago, anything from books to porcelain dolls. Still have a few of the dolls in their boxes. What started that was my mother's remarkable resemblance to "Norma Jean" when she was in her 20's -
Another young collector is born ❤

More California...couple of pics with her son at the hotel...a California sunset, and a trip to Shasta Lake followed by authentic Mexican food. Another good day 😊

Always, my man, always. Sometimes I think I'm too passive and forgiving for my own good but I always try to walk that positive line 😊

Nice Mib, Sherry 👍

That might get confusing, too many different "looks", from marble too marble, to have all of them called just one name; in my opinion. And what if 10, 20, or more marbles with different "looks" hit the scene; all different then what's posted here pertaining to traits like opaque, translucent, clear, color scheme....oh boy. Who knows? Maybe some of these beauties did recieve their own special, individual name, and someone out there stumbles upon the evidence? 🤔

If I am seeing orange, red, pink, peach, green, and blue; and if it was too get a name one day and I could name it, I would dub it "Rainbow Sherbet". It looks pretty tasty 😛

Bagged marbles from a Swedish country store!
William replied to Chris Parson's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
I did consider the age playing a factor, hopefully the seller considers too reflect on his packaging skills and the postal service handles your future shipments with more care 😊 -
Pic I got a few hours ago, my gal and her son heading out for supper and some action at the casino 😊

Cool indeed 👍

White chocolate perhaps? That "tear" looks awful clean, like it was cut. Maybe not, just appears so? -
Couple of Pelts and a Master Also....do like the car, would like to see some closer, detailed pics?
-
Thanks! Happy with it 😊
-
I was thinking maybe Pelt on #2 and #8 (the 2nd #8)....Master also on #4 and #10....maybe WV swirl on #1...#7 and the first #8 appear to be the same marble, maybe Jabo....#5 Jabo and #3 Vacor? Size would help but those are my guesses?

It was interesting! I couldn't imagine a chicken coop for what, 2 years I think it was?

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 😊
