Sam and Dave, thank you very much.

And WTG both of youse.

Just got some Marble Buddies III Spring Run marbles from Dave. Dude,Thank you very much.

They are AWESOME. Busy little 5/8" balls for sure w/ lutz stringers. Got a cool little easter egg, too.

WTG! You the man.

They sure are keeping busy @ SAMMY'S MOUNTAIN MARBLES.

Keep on keeping on.

<<I was impressed how Jabo had converted Crayolas into marbles, but now they've managed to do it with Pop Tarts! >>

Bumble bee, THAT was a good one. :cool-smileys-262: LMFAO :cool-smileys-262:

Steph, thanks for the plug.

all the black eyed peas I have seen were approx. 3/4" size.

a very nice example.

hey rare jabos are hard to come buy.

the cat is cutie.

I agree the jabo is a 03' classic and it should be a 3/4" inch shooter size.

I guess they could. why not? but then again maybe not.

I do know they will fall under the heading "Dave McCullough's"

jabo organized in 1987. I Believe they made industrial marbles only. In 1991 Dave Mc Cullough was hired. Soon after (I think the spring and or the fall) Dave would make small runs of colorful (toy) swirl marbles. The jabo classics were born. The first two years (1991 & 1992) were experimental. Then starting in 1993 till 2007 Dave had a run or two every year. It was the later success of private contract runs that ended the classic run. But fellow collectors need not worry Dave is now back doing just that with Sammy Hoque at the new Mountain Marble.

great info and nice work, Steph

Rainbo and not Rainbow.

my pleasure.

a nice final touch.

duffy you done good. Real good.

you sure that ain't oak?

dude that should come out real nice nice.

(glass top w/ ball and claw feet). Got to show that off when your done.

A winter wonderland.

Yes. I think it's amazing. All the colors plus the groovy movement. Those little 5/8's pack a big PUNCH.

To think you could fit all that in a little ball. I would describes them as mini exotic private contract looking jabos but there NOT.

You can definetly see that Dave McCullough had a lot to do with how the marbles came out at Jabo. There coming out just as nice if not maybe better rolling down Sammy's mountain.

Prepping for the Fall.

I just got these....

It's great to see Dave Mc Cullough keep on keeping on. And what I have seen from Sammy's Mountain Marbles (please see below), he ain't missed a beat.

Bob, If it's left to right the 5th marble (red/green/white) it's just a helmet patch (I believe a Vito. Some say Akro Agate).
