Chuck posted this Alley, and has me leaning back that way

Sure looks like a white layer under the color. That would make it an Onionskin

Looks like some similar types in 2001. Just wish the glass wasn't so nice and it had some little dings so I could convince myself. I am sure it will get sorted out in Canton!!!! One More Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Does anyone have a pic of a similar Jabo. None I have look anything like this marble. And all the older ones I have do not have this much folding

This seller has been pulling this kind of crap for years. And come on Mon, how in the heck did I get included in this thread with that seller. Kind of upset my stomach. JK

Big Jabo. 2006 I believe

Come on Dani, we are not in court.

Clean surface, several folds. nice glass, great colors. Never seen a 5/8"- classic that compares. But I haven't seen them all. Edit just got a phone call vote for Alley

Whats your Idea Ric? Say anything but the J word

Did the center bottom jump in the correct pile or should he go get with the Ravenswoods?

SPARKLING SWEETNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Vellllly Intelesting!!

Pretty sure Vitro, and often contain the deep transparent purple marbles as the black ones. There is a huge board they were used on I think it is 3 feet to a side.

Not sure how why or on purpose but they are one of the most beautiful mibs around

Many of the same color combos can be found amongst many makers. I believe it was what they thought would be most attractive to the buyers. This probably went back even to the pre-glass days.

Use the search feature on the main forum page. Pavcraz will bring up a couple of pages worth of posts.

Special cats !!!!!!

Bring it to the next show and it will be the 3rd one I have seen in person. Unless someone besides me takes one to Canton. Nice score!!!!!

Box looks good marbles look good that is not an Akro bag IMO

Red Bee with Aventurine in the red is called a Ruby Bee.

Early michaelangelos, not the current variety, Sunbursts are also a good find but the most collectible are the handmade Atmospheres

need a pic

Clyde and I started discussing them on the phone yesterday. While doing so I looked closer and saw what Alan saw and retracted my bid.

I would bet kids were using that name soon after they started making them

I find it hard to believe there were folks messing around making handmade marbles at a marble factory back in the day. The set ups that make gob feeders alone make it fairly improbable. And prototypes would have been run with the machines as they would have a completely different look as to what would be handmade. Just my opinion. I do think a lot of folks have messed around in more recent years trying to replicate the nice types of many machine mades. There are also some paperweight size guinea looking things that have garnered the story they were made at the CAC plant. Can't even believe that one a little bit. I did have and sell a messed up Lemonade Oxblood that was slightly over an inch but it was obviously machine made. I wonder what opinions folks that have spent a lot of time at marble manufacturers may have?
