Foreign Sparklers...aka, Foreign Cats...speaking of which isn't it odd that Foreign Sparklers are in reality Cats yet USA Sparklers, Akros, are not? No
wonder the world loves to hate us...LMAO.

Ron: Is the marble in the center bottom row really purple and yellow? If so, it's truly awesome. Don't know if I've seen that color combo before.

You know for a guy in georgia who poor mouths he never finds anything he sure comes up with some doozies don't he. I think he had an English connection
on these at a local antique show - right Ron? But that Purple and yellow one is a killer. And I am just glad Becky didn't have to see those colors win
last night ! Her Bama team is rolling on down the road...

I know, Don. Ron can tell a good sad story, but that's what I like about him! Now try finding good mibs in South Texas. There's a sad story for you!

Not so fast my fellow mib gumshoes...those above as well as 99% of all I show here are apparitions from finds past...as in distant past. For example, the
sparklers were found at minimum 10 years ago now. Yes, mibs in the wild here have almost gone as extinct as the Atlanta Flames.
But, yes there was a local antique show English connection, but not for these and now long gone. These were found at that same local antique show via a New Jersey dealer who brought killer stuff to the show found at northern estate auction sells...I think the sells were also held in New Jersey bi-monthly. This guy had two old mason jar of mibs and the best of the jars were about 40 or so of these foreign sparklers. And yep, that's me. :-) Ron |

Well no. This is a ten-year-old pic from our scrapbook. The big fellow has passed on. The little fellows are the reason we couldn't keep the one we rescued from the snow! They're huge fellows now and they went absolutely crazy when we brought the snow kitten inside.
And we have a friend whom we knew needed his own companion, so the snow kitten is now being spoiled in a new home. |

Is the glass "seedy" and/or tinted? If so, I'd say foreign of the Far East type. Lots of the single color caged type show up in import bags (like Imperial, etc)
