CONTEMPORARY HANDMADE, Mark Matthews. A hard to find Mark Matthews Paul Baumann marble. Solid core swirl with outer layer of a cage of strands in a rainbow of colors. Signed on bottom with the M over M logo, with "PB" above the Ms. These marbles were produced in a limited edition and placed in a display sleeve that also included a copy of Paul Baumann's Collecting Antique Marbles Second Edition. The book was signed by Mark Matthews and Paul Bauman, and included a ink stamp impression of the MM logo with the PB above it. There were some extra marbles that were sold separately by Mark. It is unknown if this is one of the extras or if this was separated from its book. Very hard to find. 1-1/4". Mint (9.9).
