sissydear Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 I took some pictures in Sammy's workshop with a makeshift gray background and my small camera. They weren't so good and i'm not posting them here. I brought a second group of marbles to the home of Bonnie and David McCullough and using a gray sweater for a background got some great images of the marbles. Here are some incredible marbles. I can hardly wait to have my own marbles and my Nikon to do more pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sissydear Posted May 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Yes, all made yesterday. We divide them today and head out to Marietta for the WVMCC show. I've found some German antique marbles for my son, some Vitro for me, no contemps yet, but lots of old friends. It's been a fun week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marblesteve Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 This was an especially nice run with some rather spectacular marbles being made. I believe that this is the best Marble Buddies run at Sammys yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bocci Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Dave had told me he was going trout fishing. It must have been rainbow trout fishing. I just got these the other day. You guys and gals might not want to miss getting any from this run. It looks like the BEST one, yet From Sammy's Mountain Marbles "The West Virginian Run" (5-7-13). Amazing colors and patterns in this run for sure. Dave and Sam are Sam and Dave are doing it, doing it. Right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sissydear Posted May 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 This is the "Baby Fox". Colors in the marble are not spectacular, but the silver specks are .999 fine silver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sissydear Posted May 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 This marble was made using Bud Platinum bottles. It worked. I forget how many cases were used to get this blue color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
