Is There Such A Thing As A Sparkler Corkscrew?


Recommended Posts

I've never checked these people out before.

Are they mostly dealing with pretty expensive marbles?

I'm asking because I was just looking at their info about 'bid increments'.

In the 'stratosphere' brackets, they seem reasonable.

But the $25 increment for $0.00 - $499.99 seems a little 'awkward'

at the lower end of that range.

Bob, yes, mostly high end stuff.

That1, thanks for humoring me! After I posted this, I finally read the description and so I see the marble has a transparent green base, but just looking at the photo it looks like a twisty sparkler to me. :)

I cannot imagine what the company name was for this one.

I doubt very very much that the sparkler types were made with the same feeder system that spun the corkscrews.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking as well. but if you think of putting a spin on Akro patches, they could look like corks (as far as color combos go) Ah well :)

I have a few crazy corks like this variety, mostly bought from Alan back-in-the-day, with different colors. Probably made 3:00 in the morning during a color change. Or at least that would be my guess.

I also doubt very much they would have tried the spinner cup with the sparkler line, but if they did, (1) I want to have one, and (2) I'd expect to see -- at a minimum -- the five main sparkler colors, plus wispy white, all very obviously in a transparent colorless base. I don't see any of that here, really.
