I could use a ticket to anywhere in the Caribbean.

Not a Cornhusk. The fractures are caused by glass incompatibility.

Its ballast. ETA: You realize that the "There are radioactive marbles in it and we can’t sell them right now.” is just sales BS - right?

Some kind of crud in the batch.

Is there a “white brick”? Please see the photo.

Why would you attempt to invent that term? -
They're only original once. Why fool with them?

Not getting Ravenswood here.

Agree probably early German. Nice piece, despite the condition.

By my observation - ~80% 0f those folks think all of their marbles are UV reactive, when the reality is that 98% of them are just reflecting the UV light. They don't know the difference. A lot of them have gone UV crazy. -
Hit it with a lot less light. All of the details are blown out.
