Htf Cat's Eyes

[cat's eye jack]

after going through my entire cat's eye collection i only came up with these four 5/8". any ideas on what they might be called and are they that hard to find? thanks, jack

Do you recall the circumstances by which you came by these? They are a multi-vaned variety. Vacor made one but it was a little smaller(5/8"- or 9/16"+) in the 1990s and the colors were brighter(primary colors). That's about all I can provide at the moment. David

I think these are German sparklers.

I don't think so. I can see where you might want to identify them as Sparklers(foreign) but they have too much the characteristics of multi-vaned cat's-eyes. Some similarities to the Bogard cat's-eyes we talked about last week that got me to calling Marlow Peterson about. That's the Bogard cat's-eyes that had previously been identified as English Caged Fat Cores. You for comparison can go to my CAT'S-EYE SERIES at Marble Mental and check out the two 9/16" approx. cat's-eyes by Vacopr to see the similarities but you're going to have to wade your way through the 87 photos to find the right one. A good learning experience!!! David P.S. I'd go over there and find it myself but as you all know I'm banned.
