lstmmrbls Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 tough call with the literature as the same names were used for marbles of both "types". I do not remember reading anything that made a distinction when the 4 ribbon simpler style was started. Many NLRs were only 4 ribbons so it is a tough call????? Maybe Mike has some gems of information from material I missed. (fingers crossed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbobam Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 I really like Bo's silvery gray and crystal mib. There's something about 'monochrome'. This may have something to do with my several decade affair with Tri-X black and white film. Also, with this particular marble, those of you who have bears as their 'spirit animal' will see a friendly bear-face saying "Hi! How're you doing?"

Ric Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 Just thought I would throw this in - a sextuple ingot Rainbo, about 1 1/8" . . . without the little nub. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted May 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 Where did that show up?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 I found it along with some other nice ingots and a few marbles in southern Illinois quite a few years ago. It's amazingly round other than a smooth nub and if you study it a bit you can pick out the six marbles that make it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mibstified Posted November 7, 2015 Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 Big lobed confetti, over 2-1/4". With pocket ware, guessing 1930's. Underwater pics to show structure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumblebee Posted November 7, 2015 Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 My favs so far in this thread are the Vitros, the Masters and the Pelt Rainbos (when they look like Rainbos) at that size. Would like to see mint 1" slags. Here is Grandpa Bennington (almost 1 3/8") next to his peewee grandson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steph Posted November 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 Mike, that tunnel look on your K&M is something else. Am I seeing Peerless Patch boulders up there? Bill, thank you for the underwater picture. Looks like a sea creature. Very interesting. Thanks for the Bennie, Bumblebee. I have some clays I could fish out. But mostly I wish I could find the long ago article which described a game they played with boulders a hundred years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

migbar Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 The orange one next to the nice black aventurine marble ? Grab Ann, and come on over.... I'll add some pics in the meanwhiles... maybe some pics of the other one, also... Oh, and Steph...a few seem to be peerless patches....in the Acme Realer thread there was mention of a one inch one with a blue, green and yellow patch... this may be the peerless .98" version...
