  1. And, if you want to delete them all at once, when you go to your Inbox, the gear (settings) icon has an "empty" choice when you click on it.
  2. Looks like he lost the Quidditch match to Harry Potter - wow, that must hurt.
  3. Hey, a transparent golf ball - look at all the "bubble" dimples... sorry, couldn't resist - just what ran through my mind when I saw it. Otherwise, no idea.
  4. Here is one of my bags with similar marbles.
  5. Vacor makes marbles in the 12mm, 16mm, 25mm, 35mm, 42mm and 50mm (almost 2 inches) sizes. Goldfish and Lion are maybe the closest Vacor colors but missing a color so... Mummy had a newer version that might be close. Atmosphere is a possibility but I looked through a bunch of pictures that I have and could not find similar pattern/colors.

    Clays

    They do not look like reproductions although there are some out there. The originals, like these, are from the late 1800's, maybe into early 1900's.
  7. Agree with messed up Vitro All Red
  8. The Popeye marble was part of the Jabo character marbles. Here it is in the upper right of the Vol. 1 Popeye blister pack.
  9. The Betty Boop one that you posted is not like the ones that Jabo did and packaged in blister packages. They were color types and not just a facia caricature. The one you posted is newer like Ron said and could have been made by anyone.
  10. Here is pic of that box (& bag) that Dave B. posted back in 2012, with Akros.

    B-DAY !!

    Yes, have a marbleous birthday!
  12. I have never seen a Bakelite marble nor do I have any pictures saved of any.
  13. Here is one of the many Blister Pkg that I have that Ron mentioned. I got most of mine in the 2004 - 2005 time frame. I remember Dave M. showing us how they did the blister packages when we were there on a tour.
  14. The video was okay except for the "herky-jerky" motions a couple of times.
  15. Video does a good job of showing the marble but not sure on ID here.
  16. One of my favorite pics from our WVMCC tour back in May 2005 - Eddie Seese working on one of his marbles.
  17. Pete was in very ill health and not doing well last that I heard.
  18. Here are some pics of the larger Vacors in bags - not the "normal" shooter with the 24+1 bags - 25mm, 35mm, 42 mm - there is a 50mm but not sure if I have in bag - can't find pic.
