  2. Another shout out to the York Nebraska marble museum and cateye1212 on ebay! Scored these two awesome deep amber pinch pontil Yasudas. One of them even has some nice teal inclusions!

  5. Kim here. Favorites are JABO/DAS and more recently NLG. Have only been collecting about two years. I go to a lot of estate sales so have quite a bit of "everything"... or they might be nothing. Time & ID videos will tell🤭. This group has been super helpful... so glad I found you.

  15. I have collected 3 very limited prints recently. Artist name is Karen Day. I would imagine she has been here on the forum and knows many of you oldtimers. One of these smaller ones in a 5/7 frame with the black matte is one of six 1/6. The other smaller one is three of six 3/6 and the large one in an 8x10 frame is not numbered as much as I can see but signed on the back of the matte. I am a fan now! All are signed in hand. I framed them up today and hung them up. I can identify most of the marbles. Thanks for looking.

  20. The gold is a lovely shade which makes me think of MFC but the white looks translucent enough to stop me from feeling confident that it could be MFC batch glass. Signed, Not a handgathered specialist

  21. Thanks all for your help and input! I have read that JABO used an old Vitro machine for some of their runs, resulting in 2 seam marbles that can resemble Vitros. So maybe that is the case here. But the majority leans Vitro, so I'll put it with my Vitros. I like it no matter who made it! It was a killer find.

  22. You need to find an auction house that’s close by that uses the Hidbid Platform. I take mine to Past Chapters in Richmond VA. The Auctioneer/house has to obviously agree for you to consign with them. You might want to look at What-Not if your a DYI person.

  27. Types like this are very difficult to ID but I think at that size, it's probably a JABO or maybe DAS.

  29. This is how I currently see it, though others may certainly have differing opinions. From my understanding, the ‘Navarre’ style of marble was discovered at multiple Leighton factory sites during excavations, which suggests it was likely produced at more than one location as well.

  32. Give this a try… Take a black sharpie marker and black out the signature area. Let it dry. Rub the glass surface with your thumb-pad to remove the marker on the smooth surface. The remaining black in the grooves will help the signature stand out. Repost a picture with the black signature. First guess = Sonny Miller Best of luck!

  33. Hey all! I’m new here! I’m a lover of antiques, a picker and a diver lol. My dad and I scavenge old dumps and landfills, someone threw these away and I don’t know enough about marbles-YET. To determine whether or not these are worth anything. So here I am, nice to meet you all and Thank you in advance!

  37. I don't know if anyone here has discovered these yet, but they are tremendous videos. They are done by Jeff Baker and Cody Kemph as "Keepers of the Marbles". So far it's a 5 part deep dive into Onionskins with tons of great info, clearly explained. And the marbles! The marbles are insane! A must watch. Highly recommended.
