Oh, also bought a couple of really nice display boxes made by Griff that he had given a peek of in an earlier thread about snowstorm activities (I think), and that I was hoping he'd bring. Hardest working man in marbles, that guy .

There was a little hole in back of the bag which somehow got a little bigger. I don't know how it happened.


Out of the bag it still seems oxbloody on the edges. I'm loving ALL of the colors.

Hi Cheese , yes these look a good match.How can you differentiate between CAC and some of the Alley swirls, when it's thought Alley purchased the CAC production machines?

Does anyone have a comparison pic?, or is based on personal opinion and gut instinct?

Thanks in advance.

Matt.

hmmmm ... when l.e. alley started up in sistersville, he, alley, built his 2 machines, thru his own expertise, at skaggs machine in sisters. he had hands on. a very multi-talented man. as far as i know, all the locations had machines that were .. locally .. built. i believe, as do several, that it was c.a. that came to ravenswood with the sledgehammers, .. not akro. c.a. and alley were the ONLY makers of swirls in that time period. akro sold .. materials to alley. made money off alley. alley was in direct competition with c.a. so i don't think c.a. machines rolled out alley's. st. mary's red-green are bit duller in color than c.a.'s ... bill

Interesting. A "Peltier Volleyball". I can't remember ever hearing that name before.

It's actually been so long that I've forgotten what these are ... are they Master?

yep, master... always has been, well .. possible akro .. har. i thought i would butt in and politely inform the man .. but got the .. normal .. sarcastic responce ... maybe if he say's .... rare .. .... bill
