I really like the light displays. You did a great job putting those together - mibs ain't bad either!

"Thanks Ric"

              All the same mib, the stand has 2 different lighting setups, or alternating setting. Didn't mean to cause any confusion, guess I shoulda explained that in the OP, Oops !!

Here's another set with micas. 11/16" aqua blue, with faceted pontils so early period.

Micas are only just behind swirls as the most frequently found mibs on the boards in my collection. The English Victorian board game manufacturers must have imported large quantities of micas from Thüringen!

This board has appeared before, pictured with another, but its worth its own spot this Thursday!

Its a very rare (I've not seen another) 81 hole solitaire board - I'm sure made by Ayres because the gold markings are nearly identical to those found on the small square boards found in Ayres' games compendiums.

It had no marbles when I bought it but I had just enough 9/16" onions in my stash to fill it.
