Recommended Posts

At Gina's urging, a Thursday thread.  

This one is for your German marbles and related items -- Thüringen being the cradle of the glass marble making industry in Germany in the 1800's.

Followed me home from the recent Fort Wayne IN show. The prices were right. 

The onion is 2.30 inches and the other is 2.40 inches size, Big boys.

Those are dandy big ones, Ron. Did you by chance get them from another Ron?
