davesnothere Posted March 21 Report Share Posted March 21 Going down the Alox mastermade rabbit hole. After yesterday's discussion on big masters my sorting bug kicked in. These were found together pretty bashed 3/4" I always felt they were Akros just because I read some sunburst were knackered off the hop. @akroorka 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would consider that the English made Whisplers were more available in Canada than in the USA (if the Queen desired it). Did you know that the Queen collected marbles? Just kidding here😁.

Marble--On!! Nope never see them here. What i do see is a lot of german and Vacors. I'm in a area that a lot of Germans settled in back in the day . it's nice to have that , at least I get my handmades dirt cheap. God save the king and all that crap doesn't exist here it's like a fantasy box 😅 what we do have is igloos full of beer and venison lol joking of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LevvyPoole Posted March 22 Report Share Posted March 22 I don't know much, but to me (in UK) the colours don't strike me as what I've put together as (probably) Whisplers so far. I have seen some online with a touch of orange, but mostly they are earthy tones. Happy to be corrected though... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted March 22 Report Share Posted March 22 @davesnothere I'm thinking about German Sparklers for your OP. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nantucketdink Posted March 22 Report Share Posted March 22 Those are not Whisplers. They aren’t euro sparklers either(at least not any that I am familiar with and I have several hundred). My best guess would be Master. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
