Also Eddy Seese is very knowledgeable and a top gun in the marble world 😉

Mystery solved?🤞😃

This marble was found at the Cambridge dump site by Carlin Carpenter a close friend of mine and Ralph Watkins.

I would welcome anyone to prove otherwise if they can

We believe This is not automated machine made marble

Notice the fold on the North Pole. He tried the save it by lengthening the flap hopefully it would flatten the nub?

He may have had a set up like this? Just speculation…. He had a cane that slowly moved forward to the machine and he could heat it up to a semi pliable state and cut it. We don’t no for sure but it’s an plausible idea.

Eddy Seese and I came to the conclusion that the nubs on the poles is a hard center that didn’t get hot enough to liquify because of it being 3/4” size ….! And cooled too fast to be totally rounded in the machine. And the cut line is not typical for a sheer mechanism on fully automatic marble machines. And the other end on bottom is broken off from the cane and was not melted. So it’s not a blob of glass to start. 😃and Eddy made a cane and cut marbles from it with cut lines similar to Guineas. I will send pictures of his work soon showing this.

I’m in and looking forward to resolving the mystery 😃

I sure hope someone figures how Guineas were made 🤞😃Eddy Seese and I were only speculating and Eddy did make a frit cane and did cut one and two seam marbles from the cane and Fiedler was a German marble maker and he figured out how to round it with the Christiansen machine according to his grandson Robert VaDine sr. Who said to friends and family members that he would go after school to the Cambridge glass factory and watch him make the Guineas on a small hand crank machine and that he was the only one that could make the Guineas And Fiedlers granddaughter Betty Bender formally Betty Fiedler of Chadsford Pa. who I personally spoke to and she confirmed the story of her cousin …so let’s marble on !!!and solve this mystery once and for all us mibbsters 😂

And I agree I don’t have much Hope or see very much of Him in organized religion…but no bodies perfect and I guess their doing the best they can with what they got? I don’t know I’m not there judge thank God for that!!😃

The journey along the way is much better than what the world has to offer Much much Better in my book!!give Him a call I highly recommend Him😃and I bet He probably had a marble or two 🙏🏻

The best thing ever and most important thing to do in our lives for themselves and other’s is put your total trust and faith in Jesus and Him only and be in total awww of who and what He is !!! That’s been my personal experience with Him for 48yrs!!! And in all that time Getting to know him I can’t find one flaw in him because there’s non to be found so my advice to you dear people is give Him a try 😃what do ya have to lose 😇

Thanks for the information

I’m glad you enjoyed it. Can I ask where you bought it? Thanks again and I am always available for marble talks …I lost mine!!

I believe Arnold Fiedler was the Tiger Woods of the marble makers!! He sure was gifted!!!

And finding Fiedler was like finding Narnia!!!😉

I enjoy the hunt for them. It’s kinda been like a Billbo Bangens thing for me 😂

Thanks!!…I’ve been collecting since the late 70s and one of the fun things is every marble is different and it’s so much fun to find one ………….especially finding a real gem!! And I see some very nice mibbs on this site!!

Here they are ..I’ll send a few more pictures soon also taken by …….Marble Allan …enjoy 😊

Hope you enjoyed it!!

He was very generous and always willing to help me with my book about Arnold Fiedler. He did all the photos and he thanked me for the information I really enjoyed working with him. I miss him.

Has everyone seen my book ! Ralph Lucht
