and an end to an era . ..

this is what's left of the peltier plant. lots of mixed emotions on seeing this. lots of memories. but, as you see .. boarded windows .. FOR SALE SIGNS .. the bank took the mansion ... when joe cano and i pulled up .. first thing i noticed ... the big peltier glass sign .. was gone. then the little one hanging over the office door .. gone ... no real surprise .. just wondering .. WHO got them ?? the mansion.. hmmmm .. in disrepair ... sad to see it let go like that. after all the talk of resurrecting the place.

but, life rolls on. made new contacts, and all is not lost as too my desires at peltier. it was a worthwhile trip and i will be back. have to do multiple posts ... bill

Someone does own it now. He's an attorney I believe and digging is no longer allowed. Ron knows the name. The neighbors living near the old site keep a close watch on it too. They are not hesitant to call the police. Sorry, I can'tlhelp you with the name, but it's not Rick. He never really owned it. And I've probably said too much.

not by a LONG shot edna .. but i will ... ROC ..... and a lot to be said ... probably better in private .. ... bill

almost like you need it in ur hand galen. those thick ribbons .. does it go into the glass ?? alley has those characteristics also on some of their patterns. nice marble. bill

Very nice marbles. They give me this Art Deco feel. I would vote for Champion as well.

Sami

they were run by dave m. and not champ. ron has his own example, and it's in his alley box, as are mine. bill

just went thru what i have and didn't find 1 that

come close to that color of y-g. ??? on pattern, but ...

my problem is with the line of b.s. this guy has .. and been putting out for some time. quite a few know the " true" story, follow edna's thought, but it continues on. half-truths .. don't get my buks ... bill

claudia .. 1 1/4" .. they get bigger .. bill

CHARLES .. CAN YOU TELL WHICH WAS YOURS ? ABOUT THE SAME

I found the picture of one that I bought on Joe's site.

this fella was on my and another friend's radar for some time now. questions asked, and not answered, dual identies,non-responsive ... and now this. sure does look ... shifty. solid descriptions on both ... huh ... maybe somewhere with the puter skills can .. trace .. this person and see what's .. up ... bill

....

their own personalities for sure ... bill
