Bennington Style Glazed Walking Stick Top ?? Or
mmuehlba replied to mmuehlba's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Hi Bob and thanks with the scratches on this that would make sence , the hole is about 3/8 and about a 1/2 inch deep , the hole towards the out side is smaller because the glazing is also on a small part of the inside . the rest of the hole is unglaced , also looks like it was held on by some glue/ plaster ?? Do you or any have a picture of one ?? also it is about 1.195 a little bigger than 1 3/16 at the equator and from the flat to the top it is 1.100 . Thanks Mike -
well this small almost a marble with a hole in the end was bunndled in with the two big onion skins I got so now what is it ?? it is about 1 3/16 in Dia . tyhere is a lot of scratches on top and just about all over so It could have been fore some thing else and then made for a top of a stick ?/ so any Ideas ?? the picture of it next to the onion skin is for size as it is about 15/16 in size and to show I even got some marbles that need help but it was a marble added to help with bundling !! as there was a good time and some BS at the table , the collector was not into marbles any more but got most of them at Amana in the late 80's early 90's did not need to know to much . some of the marbles were polished by Marlow Peterson but I left them this time along with thousands of others still in jars and bags and ?.

yes the blue bullet mold marble is the first one I have seen that was not clear just makes me think of what it was on . and the czechlovakian guinea is just a super find I have a few others but not that color combo there sean more in beads for necklesses and hat pins than marbles just about every marble was great still trying to get more things listed for the bay to off set cost .

mmuehlba replied to mmuehlba's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Hi all well for sure I have got my moneys worth on this marble a lot of attention and even did what I do not like to do look at with a back light but that answered a lot it is a clear base glass with a very tight wrapped whispey white , and I will call it brown but even in hand I would have to put a ? behind it , but will leave it next to my bigger browns , The brown's are a few I left out of a box after I refilled it .

Is 33/64 Still Considered A Peewee??
mmuehlba replied to 3oranges's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
well in a pee wee a .015625 is a lot but in the ad it says 1/2 being a pee wee only in the top lable so in the wording of calling it 1/2 inch that is in the range of being acceptable for the way it was listed , If looking for pee wees I would have asked for a more exact size but temember only a very well trained person that reads a mic every day well be exact most are about 3 to 5 thousandths off . what do you measure with ? when being fussy never use fractions .

Hey Marble King People, Why Isn't This Just A Wasp?
mmuehlba replied to marbleseeker's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Is the black widdow a solid black marble with a red patch or ribbons or like the others still a white marble with red and black on top of a white base ? Mike -
I think it should be looked at in normal lighting it is harder to do and take the right location and time but is easier to figure out as all pictures are cropped and may be light aduusted in the editing ?? so being Colors came off a little bit in the pictures. hard to tell Mike
