Love this Peltier Board.  Curious if is old or a repro?

It's a fantasy board.

It is not an original imho but when I cilck on the image and get a deep look at it, the design looks raised instead of imbedded.

The wood is interesting as well--I want to call it Black Walnut--but this seems wrong.

Kinda weird really.

It almost looks handmade. A cool find none the less.

Marble--On!!

These all came together in one lot? Wow! That Blue Devil is awesome.
Looks like you also have a red Double Ingot there?

Yeah the red double ingot I thought was a cranberry lutz when I looked at the lot.  Still turned out okay that it was not, lol. Got a few of these up on eBay if anyone is into that.

New Jersey Marble show on Apr 26 2025 "Booty"

What a GREAT TIME! My first marble show ever. The people were awesome. I didn't go to spend money but I did spend a little. The highlight for me was the people.

Marble Kings

A Celtic Rainbow. 6 Cub scouts, a couple blue rainbows and a tri colored rainbow.

More modern Marble Kings

Jack told me the ones on the left were an experiment of some kind with making Cats Eyes and they were a real P.I.TA. to work with. Center are 4 new Supermen. The only kind I can afford. On the right are some Anemic Bumble Bees that didn't get the yellow glass yet.

VAmarbles and Stephen Bahr gave me these. VA gave me this big 1 3/16th Boulder which I think is maybe a Vacor Scorpion or maybe a Black Panther. I am pretty sure he have me that green on white swirl that you see in the cello bag on the checker board lower right. He told me it's a good one but couldn't recall exactly the name of it. I'll find out in time. But the Rocks Cousteau "Day Maker" for this Mega Marble Guy ( which I may ask to change my name here to ) was the Frosted Michelangelo I think, it has blue on the other side. That was also from VA. I was blown away. They don't grow on trees. Thank you!

Stephen may not have given me that crazy MK in that picture. Has a neat ribbed yellow patch. I think the other two are also from him. THUMBS up. I also got an awesome Early Goldfish Shooter as a gift from Stephen. I bought all the rest of those shooters at his table.

Front and center is that green on white swirl  I mentioned above along with some others I bought separately in a baggie from Adam. Adam also gave me 4 shooters. I'm telling ya. 

Here I think are three cool Master Marbles from that baggie.

 

Some Pelts and some odds and ends and then I think these pee wees might be Akro and the Mama. I am starting to gather quite a few of this kind.

I love those green and yellow ones, well, maybe I like them very much.

and some patches, I am guessing 2 Vitro 1 Master and 1 Akro.

Soon as I got in the door I met Dave T

And he gave a deal on two of these nice bags of Jabo's. All my favorite Youtube movie stars were there. Mr Alley and the Marble Avenger.

And almost on the way out I returned to people I got the checker board and supplies from and bought these beautiful Jabos.

Finally, my shooters, I came to find a lot more than this and they were there I'm sure but I had a marble brain freeze after a couple hours. Sort of a cross between an ice cream brain freeze and temporary amnesia. Too much info to take it all in and the people were so cool, I just stopped shopping and had fun.

Said hi to Bob on the way out. I said Hi to everyone.
