glangley Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 It seems I have missed some runs that came out of Jabo this year. Ebay now has some mibs listed as FireFox run mibs and they are just eye popping. These are the runs that I know happened so far this year; Tribute to Friendship, March Madness, and Joker Encore & Tank Wash. What are the others runs that have some out this year? Can someone please give me the down low on who, what, and when on what I am missing? lol I know this may sound silly, but please humor a young rookie that is just excited about cool marbles. God Bless everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smitty Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Hi Gary, it's called the "Foxfire" run, not to be confused with firefox. The run was just done on May 14th by myself, Brian Estepp, Lee Linne, Frank Miller, Mike Meade, Russ Kasmar, Paul Kasmar, Steve Olenick, and Rick Hall. I am still going through my share and these are the nicest out of any runs I was involved with earlier, we were trying for brighter colors and achieved our goal. Some look like they are on fire, bright oranges and yellows with flames and some oxblood! I'm sure you will be hearing more about them in the next few weeks. We also did a tank wash the day before. I sent some to bocci to post pics on the boards. I only know of one other run later this month, it all started in May of 2008 and could very well end in May of 2009. What a year!

MrsMopar Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Ohh...I wanna see pictures when you can, please. I'm glad you asked Gary. Awwww that would be sad if there's only one run left :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gracie Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 How cool! I wish my father was still alive. His cb handle was foxfire as was his ebay name and email name. He would have loved the marbles with the name! Rhonda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glangley Posted May 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Can't wait to see some pic's of the whole run! THanks for the response! God Bless! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david Chamberlain Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Hey! Let Brian Estepp know I'm looking forward to hearing from him and I won't be put out if he includes some of these along with the others promised. Please do not bring to Amana for me though as I am going to be right up against it - to the nub - bulk-wise with my one carry-on! ....David Chamberlain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrsMopar Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 The thought of these special runs ending is depressing...it's like an emptiness in the pit of your stomach. So many beautiful marbles, successful experimentations came from these runs as well as fond memories for those who participated. I commend and admire all who were involved in these runs for their part in marble history. My only regret would be that I could not experience the making of marbles. But I can continue to enjoy the ones that were made. Thanx to all! Have a great day! :-) Felicia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
