And a couple more

I know most people don't collect metal on marbles (not including the metallic sheen on newer marbles) but I think everyone has one or two that cross into your collection of whatever you do collect. I'm posting some of the ones that I have collected over the years. In doing these group pics, you cannot always tell the metallic in the pics. I* just did flash pics to try and bring out what metallic I could. Some are a small piece, some stripes, some follow the swirls and others almost cover half the marble. BUt, you'll get the idea that it shows up on a wide variety of machine made marbles.

Very nice!

Sorry, no picture that I can see

I didn't think Hugh signed off on licensing any Wolverine games.....LOL.

I noticed on Facebook that Mary Maslanka's husband Stan passed away recently. Prayers to the family.

Ron had posted this back in Jan 2013 - Beri's AV

Thanks for the link - nice looking box. Good pics of Realers, too.

Thanks Ron (& Ric)

And some more

Here is a photo of the other side of the polybag - maybe it'll help.

Here are some pics of ones that I have that I don't think are included in ones that Ron posted. Apologies if any duplicates.

Ric - no idea where they were sold. I have a couple Gropper bags, too. One mesh, a little different than Ron's and one polybag, which I have not seen many of. Not sure what marbles in the polybag.

Interesting bags, Kestrel. I had not looked closely at some of those over the years to see the Woolworth's name on them. While I have increased the number of bags in my collection, including advertising bags, since the 2009 post above, I have not come across any older Woolworth's bags, poly or mesh.

Neat article - thanks for sharing.

For someone who is colorblind, you have a great eye!

Foreign - Japanese - 3-way cross-through.

Middle one sort of has a CAC Snottie look

MK has a Blizzard - maybe that is what you are thinking of?

Is it really yellow or, like with some red slags, is it the depth of the white below the transparent red?

Makes me remember Steve Cogdill (big time Pelt collector in So. Cal.) - nickname peawee

I agree. There are a lot of messed up cat's-eyes of that type - many missing vanes or very faint vanes, etc. Quality control was not the primary thing when those were made.
