Ric Posted June 13 Report Share Posted June 13 @William That's a nice 40 ct bag of Five Star Brand Vitro Cat's Eyes there William. One of their earlier ones, I think. Just look at how rich the color in those marbles are compared to the later stuff they produced - they're so nice! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted June 13 Report Share Posted June 13 It's Wednesday! I have had this marble for many years and have had many people try to convince me it was a Christensen, some of those people weren't Ron and Bill - who certainly knew better, they just really wanted this marble. Years later, I dug another at Pennsboro when I was digging there with them - you should have seen their faces and heard them both stammering when I eventually showed it to them - priceless. We jibed one another about it regularly for years - what a hoot! 😄 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other Vitro bag had this drug store sticker on it, couldn't be absolutely sure but 60's, maybe 70's...kinda cool 👍😎 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
