  1. Great start to a Wednesday Cheese. Just a killer marble! Marble--On!! Just top notch on that last one--love it! Marble--On!!
  2. Love it Tommy. An entire ox brick is just boring, I love a bit of white to set it off. Marble--On!!
  3. Oh one more thing here, another Brick, a crazy one. Marble--On!!
  4. Weight 154? His arms had to weigh that--arf--arf--arf. Marble--On!!
  5. Once you start looking at Popeye collectables--you will be amazed at how much there is out there. You can start collecting Popeye today and never end up with the most. He is a very collectable guy. Marble--On!!
  6. Yep--even better without the white showing. Nice marble! Marble--On!!
  7. These are not CAC imho bumblebee. Alley Agate is a great call. Nice marbles!! I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  8. A simple rechargeable battery penlight is all that you need. A backup maybe a blacklight in the same version as the first. I always carry a lupe or magnifier with a light to back it up with. There are just too many polished marbles out there today to not be be prepared for the worst. If you are ever chastised for looking too close--move one. Marble--On!!
  9. Ohh, a challenge for sure. I know what I think. @Alan will have an opinion here for sure. I just love this stuff. Great marble! Marble--On!!
  10. With your Images this one is a great example. Marble--On!!
  11. Good eye Melissa! Marble--On!!

    Consider Vitro here. Marble--On!!
  15. This is not a very good response to this thread @stephenb, just be nice and do not come back like this at collectors that question you and your videos. You have backed up what we were all talking about--just different with the hand powered machines. The larger marble question was just never answered to my satisfaction. The Pyramids were never really mentioned. The Candies that you show are just not Vacor imho. This is not in any way considered to be an attack on you or your efforts. Any Marble collector with your influence must be held in check at some point and I am more than willing to do so in this case. I love your efforts and Vids as well-- Keep the skin thick. Marble--On!!
  16. This is my favorite out of the entire bunch. I think that "German Beach ball" may be a thing to consider here--- "Glas Murmeln"? Pretty cool marble! Invest your money in other places than marbles. Selling marbles is a big drag and it takes a long time with a lot of hassles. Marble--On!!

    Old marble

    This one was made in Ottowa Illinois--a Peltier. Marble--On!!
  18. I do not think Jabo here for some reason. Marble on!!
  19. X2--give it your best and crop your images. Marble--On!!
  20. Both are Vitro imho. My eye goes to the left one but that is just me. Nice marbles! Marble--On!!
  21. I would call these Jabo Classics. Marble--On!!
  22. This one appears to be hand-gathered. Akro did make a few of these but I would look elseware for a maker. Nice marble! Marble--On!!
  23. Akro here imho. Nice colors. Marble--On!!
