If I really want something I will break down and buy one item. Especially if it is rare.I know, that's why I only do lots or buy multiple items to help with the cost of shipping.

I did actually dig a marble... all by myself and not at the homestead lol.... I don't know how I seen it in that mess but it is the only one I have ever. The others were not muddy and gross like it wasIf I really want something I will break down and buy one item. Especially if it is rare.

I was sad to leave that project, but this was the next property over so I was not completely lost from its charm. I tell you what, this dig and the amount of skwfhskfkejvw we found was insane. 1930-1980... all pushed up into piles or in burn pits. Amazing what made it out intact thoughOooooh!

I do, and come to find out. They were military use. They came to that farm in the rail cars where they beat around in the empty containers to clean out build up and coal dust. Also they did use them for "casters" in the box cars for cast iron stoves and other heavy cargo where hand trucks or sleds were no use. I bet they were stoked when a pallet jack came along. The oddest item I believe. Kept the fowl from drowning and rail road running. Then as a game piece for local kids...Oooooh! Sweet, beats those chicken marbles to shame. Though they were very cool.

Yups, Robby it just makes sense, tiny in stature, but when a collector wants a Christensen Cyclone or Guinea, or an Akro 4 color Special corkscrew they are going to PAY! some handmades can command a big price too.smallest valuable glass collectables
See I know all about that little she devil peppermint twist, I was out bid and over my set price point within 7 minutes of the auction starting. ..blew my mind. I have paid $130's for my collection star... but it went way on past that. So beautiful and the light plays through them so well... I could watch them for hoursYups, Robby it just makes sense, tiny in stature, but when a collector wants a Christensen Cyclone or Guinea, or an Akro 4 color Special corkscrew they are going to PAY! some handmades can command a big price too.
Here are three small handmades that could get some dollars..
Blue & white no twist with mica 5/8" , Four color coreless 9/16", and a tiny peppermint divided core twist 3/8"
