DAS Mil-Bon Holiday Marble Collector Series: Fat Oxblood Rainbow

Description: DAS Millie & Bonnie (aka "Mil-Bon") Holiday MarbleSmall Boutique RunFat Oxblood RainbowCollector SeriesMINTRun Date: 11/9/17 This is a very interesting and historic DAS marble run with limited information and availability. You will not find these for sale on eBay, Etsy or other auction type services. This limited production run was named after the main investors Millie Parsons (Ed's Parson's widow) and Bonnie McCullough (widow of the recently deceased Dave McCullough). Yes, this is the marble master Dave we speak of now. It is these two famous ladies who represent the true matriarch of the JABO/DAS marble legacy. It is only through their support and dedication to the hobby, company and family that much of these marbles were created. The marble community as a whole owes a debt of gratitude to these OG's of the marble world. So, you can own a part of history with one of these rare gems in your marble collection. The color palette on this run is absolutely out-of-this-world. The pastels and vivid glass colors are richly saturated. I don't know where they found the glass for this production run, but it is not the typical raw material that most JABO/DAS runs started with. This marble has some spectacular colors dominated by a fat oxblood swirl. The other soft pastel colors include turquoise, lemon drop and green aventurine glass. The green aventurine adds to the sparkle and pop of this little rare gem. Imagine a movie with Wizard of Oz colors and this marble would fit in perfectly. In any case, a marble with this historic background is definitely a keeper for the vault. There is a limited supply of these and when they're gone, they're gone. Enjoy! I take pictures with a Canon Rebel DSLR camera with a built-in factory flash. I try to rotate the marbles and give optimum lighting conditions so that all details can clearly be seen. This marble was made on the 3/4" marble machine and it measures 0.736" in diameter with a pair of electronic calipers. DAVE McCULLOUGH WAS THE VICE PRESIDENT OF JABO, INC., AND WAS THE COLOR ARTIST FOR MOST OF THE JABO CLASSICS AND THE JABO SPECIAL RUN MARBLES.
