bumblebee Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 My first wild marble lot included a scalped 1" brown MFC. I remember the feeling of mystery and history when I saw it, because it was so much different and older looking that the machinemades in the lot. Despite its missing 1/4" of its glass on one pole, I still have it today, although I confess it is rolling around the back yard for the kids to play with.

romanoak Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Theres nothing that makes me feel older and more inept than trying to post pics when I haven't done one for a while. a nice group of Mfc slags but I guess you will have to trust me on that.

eerieFox Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 It used to bug me that Persian was misspelled in a couple of the marble books as Persion. Actually, there are "two spellings for "Persian" found on MFC boxes . . . there are a few where the word is misspelled "Persion." But it's not a different kind of marble. It's just a spelling booboo." (ann said that, but I think I have seen a picture of the misspelling. cheers, Kurt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
