  1. I'll bet it's 16 mm - a hair over 5/8", which is the size they show in the listing on Alibaba. The two I showed are at the beginning of the video.
  2. @wvrons You put on a pretty great show today, Ron! The toys are especially nice. What I find interesting is that the Paul Bunyan marbles appear in about the same mix in both the Alox and Ravenswood packaging - it seems like every bag has one of the blue on green marbles. I wonder if both companies got them from the same supplier (Master?) or if Alox might have gotten them from Ravenswood - I'm pretty sure they bought other marbles from them.
  3. My bet is modern Chinese torchwork . . .
  4. That is so cool, an act of good will from the company for the local kids. I'll bet they sold for a couple of cents, if that.

    Alley?

    I'm leaning slightly Champion over Alley on this one, but it could go either way IMO.
  6. Modern is what I am thinking too.
  7. Ravenswoods are always good! Those little jars are so neat - and so fragile. I'm surprised they held together in the dirt all those years and that you were able to recover them in one piece. I imagine they must have had a lid at one time, or maybe a cork. Have you ever seen one with a cover?

    ID help

    I'm thinking it's a Vitro that's a little odd.
  9. It may be but I'd feel better if what appears to be kind of an eggyolk yellow was white - seems like an odd color for an MCS.
  10. That's a crazy cool mib. I would like to see where that multi-color ribbon ends. In other words, pic 2 as the ribbon goes up over the top - what does the end look like?
  11. I'd say that's better but still not quite right. What kind of a camera are you using?
  12. @Kimbernugs Most, if not all (kind of hard to tell on the top ones), of yours are six ribbon Rainbos, which are considerably less common than the four ribbon types.
  13. That's a nice bunch of marbles, Joep. That hand gathered slag and the big red opaque are the ones that first catch my eye but there are a bunch of good ones in there!
  14. It looks like a Master to me.
  15. If the base is blue there is little doubt the other colors are off too. My guess on this one is Alley. But it's really important that the photos look like the marble in hand for a proper ID. The focus looks pretty good but I am not sure what might be causing your color issues. Maybe someone else will be able to offer some tips for correcting it.
  16. This is a fairly common Vitro Transparent Whitie.
  17. That bunch must've been collected over a whole bunch of creek walks! There is everything from soup to nuts with production spanning many years. I'm sort of surprised he's found so many.
  18. The AV is great of course, but I think the blue color on these marbles is exceptionally nice too - way to start the day!

    I never know for certain which way people are "reading" marbles when they are arranged like this.

    The upper left is a tough one - maybe a weird MK. I think Vitro upper right, MK lower right, and weird Vitro lower left.
  21. The upper left is a weirdo - sorta looks like an atypical twisted up Vitro Opal to me - is the base opaque?. I think the rest are Alley.
  22. Bunch of nice Pelts, Tommy. I like them - a few are pretty unusual.

    Jabo Run ?

    To me, it looks like there might be a mixture from a couple of the JABO Joker runs. And some of them, including the smaller pinkish ones look like JABO Classics to me.
