When you say "with these in it", you aren't referring to all of the American marbles in the pic too, or are you? No ....that's my sorting table lol...

William Posted May 13, 2022 Report Share Posted May 13, 2022 Finally got to do a bit of hunting! Sadly, didn't find anything for mibs but wasn't leaving empty handed. Decided to settle for some pretty cool spheres. The first one is African Jasper called a "Thousand Eye Stone". Need to replace my battery in my calipers so I am using a quarter for size comparison. This baby weighs 3/4 of a pound. The second one is Aventurine, well under peewee size. The third group are some super tiny agates, love em. Leaving empty handed usually isn't an option for me 😊 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New to me also, I would say door knob but the core suggests otherwise ?? All the flatter ones I've seen like that are from earlier models, made of Bakelite "nice score " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berryb Posted May 23, 2022 Report Share Posted May 23, 2022 The flattened profile is similar to original equipment for pickup trucks or anything with a floor shifter. Thanks Bruce 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Posted May 23, 2022 Report Share Posted May 23, 2022 Wish I had a picture, I saw one similar for sale in Winona, Minnesota a while back. Red swirls on a white base. I like yours better with the additional color. The one I saw also was still attached to the shifter itself, it was broken off about 8 inches below the "mib". The seller wanted $275 if memory serves me correctly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Posted May 27, 2022 Report Share Posted May 27, 2022 On the hunt today and found some nice Akroware 😊....the "black" pot is actually my first, I guess you can say, "non" slag piece other than a few plates. Backlit, it's actually a nice amethyst 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny thing is I almost didn't see it! Just happened to look down at a bunch of planters and recognized the ribbed top. Didn't even know it wasn't black until I got home!

William Posted May 28, 2022 Report Share Posted May 28, 2022 In the right place at the right time today for my first bulk score in a little while. Decided to go for a drive to one of my area haunts and a vendor that might put out marbles every few months had some on the shelf. Days work is done, time for some fun 😊 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
