BobBlock Posted May 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 There was one on Ebay a week or two ago that was identified as Alley http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=191161578726 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 I have not seen an Alley like it but I have certainly not seen them all. And after I looked at my Ravenswoods, I am not so sure that it's Ravenswood either, and it worries me a bit that these seem to be showing up all of a sudden - quite a few colors for Alley or Ravenswood IMO. Could it be one of Sammy's? I wouldn't mind seeing a couple of more pics of yours. Here are some Sammy's (Rich Shelby's pic). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lstmmrbls Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Pretty sure that Ebay marble is new. The Sammies are being sold cheaply and in bulk. I am sure they are .scattered throughout the country in bags boxes and jars by now. Lots more of the new run marbles showing up in vintage groups out here since the prices have fallen into the basement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clydetul62 Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Nice finds Bob. Wish Brimfield wasn't 3k miles away. My first thought was a new marble as well. I go to antique shows and stores and see them in jars or mixed in with older mibs. At least with the Jabo investor it was easier as the size of 3/4" helped give it away. Sammy's are 5/8". Gonna be a lot of confusion for future collectors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
