About 9lbs/dalle, so 180lbs in total. Thinking about adding them to our fence, similar to the fences at the Blenko Visitors Center in Milton, WV. For those of you thinking about visiting Portland, I advise against it. Haven’t been there in 7 years, it is a worse sh…le than Seattle. Homeless camps everywhere, in every park, street corner, even in neighborhoods between houses. Very sad… My first mint sulphide was a squirrel, nice score Brad & yes I had to go to the Dr. in Vancouver last week, I was more than happy to leave. A wise old squirrel once told me "you are what you eat" ...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such posts always inspire but they get lost over time, so let's post them here where they will remain on top. Sadly I have not had a good score in a long time, but this score from 2017 was my greatest of all time, worthy of sharing here. Please refrain from asking here whether featured marbles are for sale/trade. If the owner wants to sell, they can post in the buy/sell forum. Thanks! You got this all at one time?!?! If that happened to me I'd have to be hospitalized!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicagocyclist Posted August 16, 2022 Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 Just a few weeks after deciding to add Hybrid Popeye to my collection I was able to get three at the Fort Wayne Marble Show!! 2 are 5/8. The red/green/yellow is 23/32nd. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicagocyclist Posted August 16, 2022 Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 I had just acquired a green Akro Snake and then at the Fort Wayne Marble show I was able to add two Akro RED Snakes in the single stroke! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Posted August 26, 2022 Report Share Posted August 26, 2022 A small score, but a score nonetheless...a nice ashtray and the Scotty Dog lid. Missing the bottom half but hey, I'll take it. I'll do some better pictures tommorow of the ashtray, currently not home and the lighting is horrible where I am. Got the lid for $4 and the ashtray for $9....The lone bright spot of my day 👍 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the gloomy room and flash on my phone does not do the ashtray justice. The base glass is like a smoky grayish in hand. As I mentioned, I'll see about posting better pictures tommorow if I can.

Carowill Posted August 26, 2022 Report Share Posted August 26, 2022 Nice score William! Ashtrays are getting harder to find in the wild and Scotty dogs are nearly never complete, yet alone finding a top or bottom by themselves. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
