Agree with Rainbo. I like these colors.

Wonky Peltier Rainbo I think.

The base glass is even more chocolatey in hand- my camera keeps trying to whiten it up. I'm wondering if it may be dug? It has so much wear that it appears to be frosted and the circular mark in pic 4 seems like an as made mark, as it would be a very odd wear mark. There is also a UV tracer in the white glass that follows the entire cork (last pic). It's 5/8 inch.

I understand your doubt. I don't see Vitro either. The colors made me think of Akro, but ?
-
I think modern and not American but I don't recall a similar style with that base glass color.
-
I am not familiar with the name.

Some have extra colors, some have nice patterns, some are shiny when they aren't found that way and vice versa. Some have no names as far as I can tell and some are just favorites. I only put them in here to take a picture. They will be going into a larger Riker frame with some more of the same very soon and shelved with the others.

The batch pictured all found together at estate sale. Glass is VERY dark amber. MOST have a one reddish, one yellow and one green stripe/strip. On two of them the strips are really narrow, almost buried in the dark amber. Measure .60 to .65. At first thought maybe something Vacor, but they are not "oily" enough... almost matte under the shine. Similar in initial appearance to the peltier green glass 7ups, but not a match on closer inspection. All help and direction appreciated. I don't mind hunting pictures and books as am learning a ton, but would love a starting point. THANK YOU.

They are next to impossible to find as Alox marbles. The JABOs with the same colors in that size are much easier to find.

Hi all, Thanks for letting me join. I've been interested in marbles off and on since I was a kid in the 60's. We used to play "for keeps", to try to get each others best marbles. Later I just started collecting marbles that I thought looked cool. Now it's time to try to identify some of them. I'm hoping to learn about some of the different manufacturers and how two identify them here. Lot of reading to do!!! Wayne

OP is a Banded Transparent IMO, not an Indian. Transparent Indian could apply to any banded transparent. That's why there are Opaque Indians, maglite Indians, and common banded transparent's to separate the different kind's of marbles. Transparent Indian is a term I seen pop up about 5-10 years ago on feebay sellers use to bilk more $$ out of a common banded transparent.

Great design for a Peltier patch. PPP
