Agree on cheese's IDs

Once your pictures are on your computer and in a folder, if you right-click on the specific picture name or # in the folder, there should be an "Open With" command and going to that might give you an option "Paint". That is a good option to resize your picture - either by pixels or percentage. Trying to keep it simple. I attached a screen pic that hopefully will help.

No dings there! Thanks for sharing.

As many of you know, I have been back selling on eBay for the last 6 months or so – putting 3 items per day to see how that would work. One thing that I found out is that it makes it tougher for the multiple sales with combined shipping (which is fine with me) but they may drag over several days. So, I am now going to try putting several (up to 10) items of same type on the same day – like Akro multi-twist corkscrews on one day, or some patches or Alleys or marbles other than corkscrews, or Marble King packaging, or Mega/Vacor packaging, or Vitro packaging, or odds & ends packaging. I figure that way buyers can get the ones they want and with combined shipping and it’ll be easier for me to handle. So, please keep an eye out for my eBay listings and hope you find something to add to your collection. Please let me know if there are specific marbles, bags, etc. that you need. I have a lot of duplicates or ones that I no longer need to collect (just sold over 100 Alleys to a collector). My eBay ID is arasmus and the eBay link is http://www.ebay.com/sch/arasmus/m.html?_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1

That last group looks like mostly newer marbles (last 15 years or so) except for the brown/white/red on left (Vito All Red). The one you singled out might be older but hard to tell from the one view. Good pictures by the way.

Agreed

Those larger sizes also have me thinking of the various Jabo or DAS/Sammy Runs that had oxblood in their runs.

I think Jabo or the DAS runs done in the last 10 years or so.

Agree

Common foreign types - usually Japanese - nickel/dime value at most.

In resizing there is usually some kind of feature to keep the horizontal and vertical sizes reduced by the same percentage. That would alleviate the distorted looking pics.

Great find! Maybe an architect "studier" can date the house?

Top one does look like newer Asian made marble - commonly called "Imperial" as they are found in packaging by the Imperial Toy Company (Not made by them, just packaged after they bought them from various Asian sources).

When posting pictures, a couple of different views of the marbles will help. These are both machinemades as opposed to handmades. The one with the red patch, as Steph mentioned, might be Jabo or a little bit older Master or Akro patch - many similar marbles with just he one view.

Agreed

I gotta go with contemporary.

I agree with Steph's comments

Seems that way to me also.

Well, I went through some old pictures and found some posted by JH 9-03 (might be Jeff Hale?). One might have three colors but put it in anyway.

Mega Zebra Bag (2006)

Agreed

I have sent them to Jason and he will convert and upload them. Thank you for taking the time, Jason.

I sent you a message.

Yup, thank you. In the mail tomorrow.

I had gotten these tapes some years ago (probably 10 or more). I looked at a couple and just set them all aside. There are 13 tapes. They all fit in a Medium Priority Flat Rate box so shipping would be the $13 or so that USPS charges. If someone is interested, just pay $14 to cover shipping and you can have them. Here are the following auction numbers that were included - 6, 7, 7A, 8 9, 11, 12, 13 Session 1 (4-22-94), 13 Session 2 (4-22-94), 14 (7-15-94), 15 (9-23-94), 17 Part 1 (3-2-95) and 17 Part 2 (3-3-95). I have shown the dates after the #'s. The first 7 tapes did not have a date but they would be prior to April 22, 1994. Good piece of history. If someone can copy to DVD, that would be even better. No guarantees on the tapes but they have been sitting on a shelf in my office so no weather, dampness or other possible problems. First person to message me that they want them can claim them
