akroorka Posted Saturday at 07:52 PM Report Share Posted Saturday at 07:52 PM These Jabo "Boxed sets" are very collectable. I am not a collector of these but plenty of Marble folks are. These at least give a good description of the "varients". @NantucketdinkĀ is an expert at ID on Jabo marbles. He may give some advice here. Collect what you like with no reservations. Marble--On!!

Marblesguy Posted 8 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 8 hours ago I only had collected Jabos up until about 2004 when the Jabo company stopped doing fall classic runs and began doing ongoing special runs: Ā I used to set aside corkscrews and the lawn chair marbles that had the metallic in them and the eggs were fun to findĀ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marblesguy Posted 8 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 8 hours ago These were the ones that had the metallic in them ā¦rumor had it that they had thrown a lawn chair into the kiln with the hot glass and this is what arrived ā¦. But that was just a rumor. Ā Even so these were extremely rare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The garden chair was actually torn to pieces and thrown into the furnace in the furnaceĀ , in Jabo, by Ron Shepherd and Dave McCullough (RIP),Ā even if not these yours. They were made with transparent green industrial glass,Ā and they had a bluish effect Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
