mmuehlba Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 Thanks to all who did not show up . Antique / Collectible Auction Wednesday, March 16th, 5:30 pm start / Preview 4:00 pm Dousman Community Center http://www.baileyshonor.com/auctions/03162011.htm http://www.auctionzip.com/Full-Image/1081976/fp91.cgi yes a big thanks to fellow marble collectors in WI but this is the whole story , I went to make sure it was a nice marble it got bagged with two others , a very nice mint yellow lat about 29/32 but as clean as they get then a 1 3/16 caged solid core caged and a round pontil but got carried away with the area that was ground ,also it must have sat in a window sill for 50 years as it is a sun aged color . I also got 5 claw feet with marbles a set of 4 and one big one . I place a bid and left but no call that night well now Friday the bell rings and here is Carrol with the box full saying why don't I answer the phone . well I won both auctions but the were calling the wrong number . Well there home now and hand delivered . Mike ... .... .... .. .. .. My final cost was $137 but Carrol did not have any change and I was so excited I dropped an even $150.00 as it was way less that my high bids would have been , as I always say lucky in LOVE lucky in life Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'llhavethat1 Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Cool feet. Were those from a table or chair or? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmuehlba Posted March 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Cool feet. Were those from a table or chair or? The big claw foot was most likely from a large dining room table, not the biggest as I have a mold marble that is 3" in dia and I think that must be from a piano , the set of four are most likely from a bed room or living room table . I have a piano stool and the feet are a little smaller ., . I listed the one on ebay link below. Mike ebay auction claw foot marble also a picture of the big 3incher .
