sissydear Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Anyone kniow what this device is? It's made by Gerry Colman, Albuquerque, NM. The stone is a slice of the canes he makes to make marbles like the one below. Anybody know what it's used for? Colman marble in a stand. I love the hand for holding a marble. This is the marble that will be kept in the hand. I used the hand to take pics of all the Colman marbles I bought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sissydear Posted October 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Now, this does not fit my title, but I'm putting it all in one post. I did buy some machine mades. I bought Akro corks, Peltier one inch shooters, Champion Agate furnace marbles, some beautiful Vitro Agates and some Kokomo. I'm only going to show some Kokomos because in Texas we don't find those very often and I've been looking for some a long time. These are Kokomo marbles. The ones separated by the poster board strip are marbles I've had since 1992. They were Weldon's childhoodl marbles. I finally found some marbles to go with them. Anybody figure out what that first things I posted is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Oregon Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 The item is your first picture is a purse holder (I am fairly sure) that you put on a restaurant table or ... The stone/cane part swivels so it is flat on the table and the "hook" part hangs down for you to put your purse strap on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sissydear Posted October 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Al, you are so right! I knew when Gerry asked me if I knew what it was - only because i had seen one before. I would never have known if not for a friend who has and uses one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
