jeeperman Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Here's a few I picked up a few weeks ago at the Seattle show. These just spoke to me and I could just not let them go to Canton, sorry guys. =} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Brown is rising in the ranks of my favorite colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeeperman Posted August 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 I think both Alley and Ravenswood have some of the most beautiful brown colored marbles to be found. There seems to be so many shades between dark brown and crème yellow used in one marble that is just sets them off. I was previously not so moved by brown but am a convert now. They can be some of my most favorite. The blue in the one and green in the other helps to set off the browns as well, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeeperman Posted August 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Oh, you recognize those do ya? lol I owe ya one. Hate to think of you having to show up in Canton with no swirls. They have a good home. =} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'llhavethat1 Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 So would Alley be the consensus on these? The darker patterns make for a nice appeal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeeperman Posted August 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Yes sir. However the green one with more brown has some Champion traits, a bit waded up and wider ribbons. However the glass does not give me the champion feel nor does the color. I am not fully decided on that one yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clydetul62 Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 How far back did you have to twist Galen's arm. He (almost) never sells his Alley's except at Canton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chucks_mibs Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Nice Alleys....the one on the left is fantastic......did you hit it with a black-light?........looks like its from the Pistachio family of mibs (almost all will glow) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeeperman Posted August 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Thanks Chuck, yes I did. Only the very lightest shade of green glows. I would agree it looks to be in the family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'llhavethat1 Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Lol, I was thinking the same thing about pistachio family bottom left and thought crossed my mind about Champion on the top left with the lighter wispy lines (but thats just from the pics). I'm sure in hand they are great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
