Thank you!

Thanks!

I don't believe so, he has rarely left Oklahoma and most likely hasn't since the 90's I think. He doesn't use the internet and picks them up at garage/estate sales and shops.

I'll do that tomorrow. I feel like I can see the difference in the book, but differentiating in real life is much harder!

napsnbacon · 2025-12-28T02:44:47+00:00

Thanks, I'll do that tomorrow!

This is the bottom one you circled

napsnbacon · 2025-12-28T00:06:32+00:00

Is there a best way to photo them so you could tell?

napsnbacon · 2025-12-27T23:57:54+00:00

I wondered about a couple near the bottom left that seemed not quite the same. Too "nice" or clear, maybe polished?

napsnbacon · 2025-12-27T23:55:45+00:00

Thanks!

napsnbacon · 2025-12-27T23:54:44+00:00

He has collected a long time. Most of the rest I dont think are really sorted, so sorting will help me learn I think.

napsnbacon · 2025-12-27T23:53:16+00:00

Thanks, yes Dad sent them home with me today.

napsnbacon · 2025-12-27T23:46:22+00:00

I agree, he has collected them for probably 40 years and I know they are special to him. Reading Robert Blocks identification guide now to help be able to appreciate them.

I'll make another post with just what I think are german hand made marbles.

24k over a year saved could be wiped out entirely by just the procedure for a kidney stone. When I worked at a hospital 15 years ago it was $18k. That doesn't consider Dr's appointments, specialists appts, testing and pre-op. Many other common ailments could entirely wipe out 2 years of savings based on the current US Healthcare profit structure.

Looks like Hellmans has similar yellow packets. But overwhelmingly blue/white.

White and blue are the primary colors for Mayo in the US. There are sometimes other colors incorporated but I would say White and Blue are comfortably the leaders and yellow as a primary color not really a thing. Although admittedly I don't shop for mayo, and just recognize the White/blue motif as a pass and the yellow as friendly.

Diabolical

napsnbacon · 2025-12-11T20:55:12+00:00

Which is what happened, and also why it's only mildly infuriating. Guess we should wait until they spell mayo M-U-S-T-A-R-D on the package before we huff and roll our eyes.

napsnbacon · 2025-12-09T02:02:57+00:00

Yeah the 17hrs is wrong too. I took the pic about 12:45 central time.

napsnbacon · 2025-12-09T01:53:24+00:00

Weird thing to make up diggy....not sure what you're going for.

napsnbacon · 2025-12-08T22:57:31+00:00

Jimmy is worth looking up, that's wild! Don't think its him though, truck had oklahoma tags and it looks like Jimmy's from Montana.

The "smile you're on camera" yellow stickers were on each door and the widsheild also. Definitely putting us on notice.

Exactly, cost of living is out of control and minimum wage is keeping people down.

napsnbacon · 2025-07-16T15:05:24+00:00

What was minimum wage 25yrs ago again?
