No such thing as stupid in marbles ID.

Stupid would be like when I could not wait to check out a marble out of a delivery and I dropped it on the garage floor. Clumsy too, sausage fingers here drops a lot of marbles.

I believe a silver surfer has to have ta transparent green base, Gladys mib has what appears to be an opaque white base, still a killer marble in anyone's book. I also consulted the book I bought from Sami Arim  "Peltier Glass Toy Marbles" an American Legend, to make sure of the I.D. qualifiers for this particular Pelt. The transparent green base glass is present in every example shown. I would post the pix but not without permission from Sami first.

Here is a link with a couple different links w/ pix of them, curtesy of AAM

Prized indeed, I agree David, Glady's got a real keeper there, the blue Av. really makes for a nice marble image.png.dfb3e9b1726c5195a33f21817568c96d.png
