I know, as a collector, I want the best I can find. But sometimes wounded warriors have a thing of their own. I've posted this before, but it would be interesting to know the story behind this poor thing.
-
Arrived in the mail today. Not perfect. A couple small chips. But... A nice Chocolate Brown NLR and **full** of aventurine.
-
And this is another Akro that's been hiding. I've always considered this an Akro Oxblood Augur. Unfortunately it's got a big moon on the other side. Still a pretty marble.

Newly IDd Vitro Sparkler. Seller IDd it as a Peltier Clear Rainbo.
-
A Pair of Pretty Peltiers. The Clown has a transparent blue base, which I understand is a bit harder to find.
-
Almost forgot about these two. Kind of hiding at the back of a display. Oxblood snake in clear and Black and oxblood cork on translucent white
-
Well, that's two votes for Vacor. Galen thinks it might be also. I''d love to figure out who made it, but in the end it's not a big deal. Didn't pay much and I like the marble.
-
Yes, I finally noticed. He's now got a note that states this is DHL's price for tracking.
-
IDd by seller as Peltier Citrus. I'm really not a Peltier expert, but I do own a couple Citrus and I've done a bit of research online and I don't think that is what this is. Pretty sure about Peltier, but it really doesn't have the attributes of a Citrus. Comments?

I have a Michelangelo and remind is about it. Hopefully Winnie passes through in the next few days. At least I'll know if it's European or not. It's a pretty marble and I paid a bit less than $5 including shipping so it's not a big deal either way.

There's a guy (0 feedback) attempting to sell two Vacor marbles (he thinks they are some kind of antique German Peltier) for a truly horrendous price and wants $24 for shipping Ah yes, here it is: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-Vintage-Beautiful-Eggyolk-Oxblood-Marbles-Peltier-Co-1920-German-/291871436032?hash=item43f4e4ad00:g:~6kAAOSw-kdX1ZA1

I really should re-photograph this. Had my camera on a not-marble setting and am noticing how blurry these are. Maybe later today. If I do, I'll just replace with same names.
-
Galen seems to think it is Vacor, but Al has a considerable Vacor collection and he's never seen it. Yeah, I was hoping Winnie drops by.
-
Newly acquired. Seller IDd it as European Swirl. Having some doubts.
-
One of my first Peltier Multi Color Swirls - back when I thought they were HTF. My only Oxblood MCS. It's a bit rough, but still a favorite.
-
Cup of Lemonade
-
If it's red, it's oxblood. I've got 4 or 5 of these guys. Never sure who or what they were. IDd by the folks over on AAM as Akro
-
I know I've posted this before, but I never get tired of showing it off. I love this old handgathered, ground pontil oxblood. Surface is pristine -- if you ignore all the annealing cracks.
-
I really should visit this forum more often. Some nice stuff. My favorite picture of the Columbia Gorge. Columbia River separating Washington to the north and Oregon to the south. The rugged walls of the gorge and the Vista House (1918), an observatory built on Crown Point in the middle of a big looping switchback of the old Historic Columbia River Highway.
-
Looks like he's pulled it. I'd be curious to see if he relists it with a correct description.
-
For some definition of wet and for some definition of mint. And of course it's pawn-masters. I'm convinced that the seller has **no** idea what he's selling and whoever he's working for is telling him what the descriptions should be. BEWARE. Don't bid on pawn-masters auctions.
-
Box of Rainbos. Not quite matching, but I still like this grouping.
-
Still going to call them Antifreeze.
-
Thanks to both of you. So no green fizz then. Doesn't glow and the bases **are** transparent bubbly green.
