I think Akro too, and helmets have a transparent face, AFAIK.
-
I think they're JABOs.
-
More like a Liberty Patch.
-
Not sure I have ever seen a Wales or Pincer at 1" - I think a slightly odd Master.
-
Alley from St. Mary's, I think - too big for CAC.
-
I could see CAC.
-
Peltier Acme Realer I think.
-
@akroorka Nice bunch of marbles and a great set of pics, Art!
-
Bennington marbles in original packaging?
Ric replied to schmoozer's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Definitely something different that I've not seen before. It's hard to tell how big it might have been originally. My best guess would be it's some sort of a warmer - hang it near the fire to warm it up and use it like a heating pad, or put it at the foot of your bed on a cold night maybe . . . -
They're all giving me a Ravenswood vibe.
-
I don't think a bit of additional color is too unusual, even if it shows up only on one vane - looks cool though.
-
It looks like Vacor to me.

1) I think the term "pontil" has simply come to describe a hand-made cut-off mark, regardless of whether the marble is cut off a punty or a cane, or if the cut-off is finished in a particular way. 2) May be a single-gather German slag. 3) I think they were hand-formed but Brian @akronmarbles might know for sure.

@akroorka I think they're probably just dug. The shapes are not uncommon for dug misshaped marbles. I've got lots of Alley examples just like them. @Fire1981 Kisses are common but I don't think I've seen a four-sided one before - more like a pyramid, pretty cool.
-
It looks like a Sweet Potato variant to me. Check this post for more . . . In my experience, the white ones are pretty common.
-
I think the Blue Boys are older, like Steph said, and that ones like these are newer, but I am not sure how much newer - I'm thinking later than 1980 though. Maybe @Jeff54 has an idea.
-
My first take was an Indian too. What does the other end of the striping look like? Do you see pontils?
-
I'd guess Alley and Champion (or maybe Ravenswood). WV Swirls like these are hard to ID with any certainty, especially from only two views.
-
Kinda nondescript - not much to go on. I'd say Ravenswood on the second one though, maybe Heaton on the first, Champion on the third and Alley on the last one.
-
A couple of WV Swirls - could be a from one of a few different makers.
-
Melissa's got it right.
-
The left is a Peltier 6-ribbon Rainbo. It's hard to make out the seams on the right one but it doesn't immediately impress me as Peltier, maybe Akro - a couple of more views might help.
-
I agree it looks Vitro - a typical "patch" type.
-
That's a great box, Art - very unusual to have the instructions still with it. Nice find!
-
Aren't 7 Ups are on a transparent green base? This looks like a Holly Berry to me.
