akroorka Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 This used to be my "Pocket Marble". I would take it wherever I went. To work—to the mall—Grocery shopping—etc. I just love this thing. It grounded me and my collecting addiction. It is still front and center on my desk-top (wooden desk top). I remember Gino Biffany offering me a trade at a show—“anything that you see”---it may have been a test but I turned him down. He was a character for sure—what a great guy-------- Some marbles you just fall in love with—this is mine. Marble—On!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akroorka Posted September 6, 2023 Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 This is why we study marbles. I just opened this one today. It was sold as an Alley—I knew better. This one went for $10.50 including shipping. We used to call these “Millers”. This one is under 9/16” and over ½”. I have never seen one so small. Killer buy for the bottom feeder that I am. I just love this stuff!!! Marble—On!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I thought that was an Alley, I'd have paid more $10.50 for it, that's for sure! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
