Fire1981 Posted January 31, 2022 Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 This is another gift marble from Mig. It’s the only one I’ve seen. Does anyone have one ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted January 31, 2022 Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 This one is similar in structure . . . Sorta cat's eye looking and disappearing vanes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire1981 Posted January 31, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 This marble makes me wonder if there are baseballs out there with black ribbons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted January 31, 2022 Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 There are 'bos with silver/gray ribbons, and Zebras with black ribbons so it seems like . . .maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marbleized Posted January 31, 2022 Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 First impression for me was a Peltier. But, my batting average is terrible. LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted January 31, 2022 Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 My first impression on the first one was "wow, what a wierd cateye". I can't call it--cool one though! Marble--On!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'llhavethat1 Posted January 31, 2022 Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 My first thought was cateye too, but the construction and bubbly base glass? Could be Pelt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck G Posted February 1, 2022 Report Share Posted February 1, 2022 Fire, i have two of these and (YES) i feel in my opinion they are Peltier all the way. Now i will discuss why i think they are. If you caliper it you will find that it is right close to 9/16th. I have never found one above this size. It seems to be just a plain transparent black four ribbon rainbo. We are all here to learn, and having examples of the marble you have shown is vital. Your example is the (first) one i have seen outside of the two i have. I was in the Kansas City miniature museum some years back and in a drawer i opened up was an (original Peltier box of 25 of these), all 9/16ths size. Yours having some metallic is even a bit better. A real (illusive) example to find. There is another example i am searching for and it is even harder to find than yours. In my opinion i would KEEP it until we are seen many of these, which i do not think there is. Chuck G--- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steph Posted February 2, 2022 Report Share Posted February 2, 2022 Youch! I hadn't seen that the marble came from Mig! I need to read better instead of just looking at the pretty pictures! If I had seen that, I wouldn't have gone to Bogard. Cool mib! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
