Transparent red and blue ribbons meet at two seams on an opaque white base glass forming this, one of Peltier's most famous productions, the NLR Liberty. With all of the swirling action, you'd, at first, might think this was a Miller machine product, but as shown in the first two pictures, there are two seams; so, an NLR. At 45/64", a good deal over 11/16, we have what would have been, in the earlier days of marble tournaments, considered a SHOOTER; although now-days, collectors are more interested in 23/32 or larger as shooters. At any rate, the size of this one, as well as, it's wonderful mint condition cause it to stand out in any display of your regular mib-sized marbles.
CONDITION: MINT 9.5 The surface is wet and shiny with no signs of wear what-so-ever. All I can find are some clearly as-made dimples with melted edges from air-bubbles that collapsed inward rather than the all-too-familiar outward explosions.
