Marbleized Posted January 30, 2022 Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 Could this possibly be a brick? If, I should be so lucky, what company? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted January 30, 2022 Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 That is a nice wet brick. The white swirl and the pattern is what Iām basing my ID on.Ā 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marbleized Posted January 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 Yippee! I was just trying to sort through random marbles that needed sorting. Never really noticed it until I put it under some good light. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marbleized Posted January 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 I guess it doesn't have a lot of white in it so it didn't stand out as a brick. LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted January 30, 2022 Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 Kinda funny how one wisp of color can confirm an ID.Ā 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marbleized Posted January 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 I'll need to put this one in a special place so I don't misplace it!! I'm kind of embarrassed that I didn't know this was in the mix. Definitely a "Lifer" Fire 1981, and I'll go with your guess on MFC, Ric.Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted January 30, 2022 Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 Here is an image of my first Brick--I hold it in great regard. I just love a brick, no matter the damage or the "mintiness" This is just a great find for you 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire1981 Posted January 30, 2022 Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 I only have one and it looks like it was hit by a wrecking ball during a demolition job. š 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marbleized Posted January 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 I'd take in a well-played with brick anytime! In fact, while sorting through my marbles today I found myself often thinking that I like some of my non-minty ones more than the mint ones because they had better colors or patterns.

akroorka Posted January 30, 2022 Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 Here are my best bricks. Yours blows them away. The second image is a Brian Graham Brick. He makes his own oxblood and it is very nice, made on the old Pelt "Miller" machine after a hand gather. I love em. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marbleized Posted January 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 Now I don't want to "dump" any marbles. Like I have a whole bunch of marbles that I wonder if they are tomatoes.

Mine is very "incognito" until it is put under a strong light. Maybe easy to miss. Quick glance it looked like a champion marble. Yikes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
