Defective or Unique?

Warning!  WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-This toy is or contains a marble. Not for children under 3 yrs.

You decide when you get a bag of these clear glass marbles. They've all got inner defects-air bubbles, mostly-and some have indented veins on the surface. That just means you're getting a selection of one-of-a-kinds. Most are 3/4" dia, some are a touch larger. (15) marbles per order.

27494 GLASS MARBLE, 3/4" DIA

Boneless Chickens

You may well have wondered where the boneless chicken breasts in your local supermarket come from. The answer is from boneless chickens. And we have some life sized rubber models of the birds to prove it. Modeled from life, they are shown plucked and as they might appear hanging in the poultry store window. Seeing is believing, at least in Missouri, so get one and look.

A Snarl of Magnet Wire

One of those sharpie East Coast outfits pulled a fast one on this poor naive Midwestern dealer. The result is we have a pile of exotic coated copper magnet wire. The coatings and colors vary widely, as does the gauge of the wire. With a couple of exceptions there isn't enough of any one kind among the hundreds in the pile to list separately. So we are offering an assortment and you get whatever we grab. Either way you will get a terrific value, particularly if you have an exotic application and get just what you need. Even if you are just making a garden variety coil or electromagnet you will still find the prices are very good. So go ahead, profit from our misfortune. We are glad to be of service. Sigh.

36227 MAGNET WIRE, 16 GA
$11.95 (100 FT)
36228 MAGNET WIRE, 20 GA
$10.95 (200 FT)
36229 MAGNET WIRE, 24 GA

Bead Heaven

Glass beads, 0.055" diameter!! They are German and are the kind you glue on stuff to make it sparkle or reflective--not the kind with holes. At our price you could do layers in little bottles for really cool thingums!! We have 'em in clear and a whole host of colors. Craft stores sell tubes of these beads for a ruinous $4.00 per tube or about $3.35 per oz.. Well, we don't have the tube so you are going to get a baggie, but you only have to pay $1.00 per oz so jump up and down and clap your hands over such a great deal!! The only thing left is to choose what you need. In case you can't do that, we offer an assortment of (10) packages which will include clear plus at least six (6) different colors.

Optical Glass Filters

Al Luebbers, our founder, collected glass. Not glass like you'd find on a knick-knack shelf, but optical glass. Lenses, prisms, reticles and filters, for example. Focus on the filters. Many of his filters came out of military surplus, and this is for-real stuff. We mean many are solid dyed optical glass, ground and polished to flatness standards that were probably excessive. Others are from the old days in photographic optics, and their standards were even tighter than your militaristic Uncle's. We've found that photographers, artists, and optical designers still have an occasional need for good glass filters, so we're making a list of some goodies. As always, don't be timid about calling for quotes on quantities. If we have 'em, we'll sell 'em. Just don't sell them back. Please!

Mood Sheet

See psychedelic patterns the safe way! Press your hand on this 6" x 6" sheet of liquid crystal and leave a print of swirling colors that, like the mood ring of yore, you can use as a sign of your mood. The pattern will blend and fade in seconds as the crystals react to temperature. Tiny liquid crystals inside the film-like material react to heat by changing colors. As science, it demonstrates the way liquid crystal displays work. And you can cut it into pieces to incorporate into a science project. Or just leave it out for guests to play with when the party turns boring.

$10.95 EACH
 

Scratch 'n' Tell

You're back to when the kids were toddlers, and played with the wrappings instead of the presents. This full-color wrapping paper, with (2) 26" x 17" sheets in each pack, is covered with pictures and related questions about dinosaurs and black heritage. Scratch off the gold dots to check the answers. It's an interesting twist for grammar-school age kids or adults who like to play games.

Fire Lights

Very pretty. Very graceful. These clear-glass 2.2 volt, .25 amp bulbs are a wavy, flame shape 1-1/2" tall and 5/8" dia at the widest point. The base is candelabra size. They work fine on 3 volts (2"AA") at .32 amps. For a special look, hook (50) up in series and use them at 120 VAC. Order extras, because we don't think you'll find little pretties like these at your local hardware store.

Rainbow Glasses

Neon strip cardboard spectacles with diffraction gratings as the lenses. You can see the regular world, but all light sources and bright objects appear in multiple rainbow hued images. The effect is a little as though the whole world were a giant hologram. Great stocking stuffer or birthday party item for grade school ages.
