Steph Posted December 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Heaton Big Shot Cat Eyes, from Joeager's auction. Only 5 cents! (click to enlarge) These cat's eyes were said to be found in a bag, but the bag was damaged so the marbles were take out of it. I believe that the Ricksmarbles listing said/implied they were found at a Heaton site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 Robin's Egg Colors are similar to (but different than) Alley's Blue Sky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted February 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 Neat. When I first started posting, that one was considered special but seeing yours I now realize it's been a long time since I've heard much about that particular Heaton.

cheese Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 I need to go through my "not alleys" pile of swirls and pull out some more heatons. I like this one a lot though: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted March 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 Coolness. And I should take a picture of my handful of Heatons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steph Posted March 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 Cool to see a Heaton big guy. I must remember this moment. But it'll probably slip my mind again. Big marbles from smaller makers just can't seem to stick in my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManofKent Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Heaton Big Shot Cat Eye's I probably won't open the bag as I'm not convinced they're distinguishable from other four vane cat eyes of the period: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted May 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Good call! I think the translucent on the green might be a clue ... but basically ... good call. Definitely better together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManofKent Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 More bagged Heaton's - common or garden clearies (I like clearies ): If anyone is mad enough to try and identify clearies. The green on these is more intense than my Vitro Aqua Jewels, but the deep blue and clear are pretty much indistinguishable. Similarly lightly bubbled. The yellow ones do show a definite darker tone in a small part of the marble - the colour isn't quite perfectly evenly spread, but this isn't immediately obvious at a quick glance.

Steph Posted June 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 I never even think about Heaton when I think about clearies. In some portion of my mind I realized they made clearies -- for industrial purposes. I didn't know they bagged 'em for play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To my eyes the green one is quite Cairo like in some aspects - a useful reminder of how an atypical example of either manufacturer could be confusing!

cheese Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 Good point, I had considered Cairo too on that one but the colorless clear part going down into the base and the transparent green wide area said Heaton to me. I did get a second opinion before posting but nothing is always 100% and these have no provenance, so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure the colourless clear area points me either way but agree on the transparent green area definitely pointing that way. I'm really struggling with swirls!

Steph Posted June 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 I often feel okay about saying "Cairo or Heaton" without feeling like a can go further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
