  1. Sorry to hear of this - prayers and condolences to the famiy and friends.
  2. Agree with Steph by the way.
  3. Again, not pontils but cold roll marks when the marbles were rolled to make round (machine made) and cooled too fast. Right two could be from 50's, 60's to present and left one new in the last 20 years or so.
  4. A few different color marbles in the 40-count bags and one baga little larger...
  5. Hi all - got a bunch of patches in groups of 25 on eBay along with some individuals marbles - flames (and some wannabes), metallics (Alley, Champ, etc.) and, of course, corks (and a couple bags). Check them out. https://www.ebay.com/sch/arasmus/m.html?_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1
  6. Glad to see you are still around. Met you in Seattle at the 2008 Show. Time to come out again - July 15 show day - in-room July 13.
  7. It's nice that Debra is still keeping in touch with you. Good picture.
  8. Sheeesh, where are the "real" marbles - machine-mades - LOL. Those are some great marbles. Sometimes I regret not having collected handmades.
  9. Runnersdad posted this aventurine one a few years back
  10. I have not taken individual pictures of my multitwist corks but here are a couple pictures of some of mine. The transparent type corks (onyx) seem to have more twists/corks than the opaque and translucent types but you can find many in both.
  11. I do not see any high value ones in the group shot. There are some newer types, foreign, cat's-eye, MK and some 60's types like Vitro and maybe a few older WV swirls and maybe even some Jabo. Good variety for a collection but look like common ones.
  12. Paul, nice work. Roger Adam is the one that made these many years ago. I have a few. Yes, Steph, corks do look nice in these display cases (here's one of mine). Paul, I would think you can sell these big time if you have the time to make them.
  13. Agreed - does not look like any Pelts I have seen. Almost reminds me of basic German type but....?
  14. budwas - you asked about the 2nd one up on the left of my display case - here is a close-up[ picture. Turned out to be opaque yellow base with blue ribbons (bleeding on one side).
  15. Some nice Akro corkscrews ending Monday & Tuesday on eBay - Mint and Mint - - http://www.ebay.com/sch/arasmus/m.html?_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1
  16. Great find. That last one could be Peltier.
  17. Older - late 1800's, early 1900's - pottery marble but may have another name. Not common to me but not rare either.

    Group 23:

    Second picture of # 2 gives me pause. Maybe a chance of a slag or MFC/CA type of marble. Not sure.
