orbboy Posted June 10, 2017 Report Share Posted June 10, 2017 A marble buddy over here asked me to post some pics of his collection. He has not been at it to long, but you can see that quality and condition are at the top of his list. Some nice eye-candy for all to take a look at. First group is an assorted sol set Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

popeyecollector Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Great assortment of handmades. Your friend must have picked from a major collection. They are beautiful even see rare left hand made swirls. My favorites are near surface parallel white lines over a red or blue "jelly" core. That green spotted was great The single ribbons with several twists were excellent two marbles were shown last were show stoppers Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'llhavethat1 Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Nice pics, awesome selection and a few "unfinished/end of cane/beginning of cane" marbles that (even at a small percentage) stand out. Very cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orbboy Posted June 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Nope no big collections picked to get these. Unless you count mine lol. He does select from most of my finds, but generally just has an all around eye for nicer marbles. It does also help that the U.K is a hotbed for marbles. We are hanging out on Saturday so I'll get some more pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
