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!!

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!!

Nice find and good eye, Art. If I thought that was an Alley, I'd have paid more $10.50 for it, that's for sure!
