When I was a kid in the sixties we played marbles every day. I had three stashes of marbles. First was my playing stash. Second was my trading stash. Third was my showing off stash. One of these was called a mooney which was a creamy white shooter size and when sunlight shown through it would project an opalescent crescent moon on your hand. Thanks for the video it brought back some memories for sure.

@jeffadams667 Жыл бұрын
Brings back lots of memories seeing the old dump sites. When we were kids we traded marbles for almost anything and I had the greatest secret way to have unique marbles in colours only I could supply. A friend of mine had a sphere grinding machine for making rocks into spheres for his dads jewelry business. I found a huge dump site that had tons of broken uranium glass, millefiori glass and telephone pole wire insulators from 1900 or so guessing from the other bottles I found. I would supply him with broken glass pieces and we split the marbles we made. We felt like bandits trading broken glass made into marbles for anything we could get. In the 70s everyone had black UV lights for felt posters so we played marbles in the dark with glow in the dark marbles. You could easily make some really neat marbles from the scrap glass you collected. And because it was actually used to make marbles you would end up with perfectly round marbles in colours that actually existed long ago.

Wow.Rock, so much glass. You could fill hundreds of cases with just the glass chunk's from the marble factory's. The glass would look so cool in a case.with all the different colors of glass just like the marbles. An the cool thing about the glass is that it is old as well. Man if you knew someone close by that blows glass. Just think of the marbles he could make you with all that old marble glass. Great video rock. Have a super weekend my friend an we will catch you on your next adventure. 😁👍👍
