I think Heaton is a very good possibility.

You are really fortunate to have that marble and the letter from your Grandpa. The set is a heirloom for sure. If it were mine, I would do my best to see that it stayed in the family.

Definitely Vacor, and there are plenty of them around, as far as I know - probably not as many as the smaller sizes though.

Not to say it isn't often cool, but I think horsehair can be just a streak of some contaminant in the glass stream, and that it's usually unintentional. And I'm thinking maybe Heaton for Rick's marble.

It is pretty cool looking . . . looks like it might have gotten hung up on the rollers. I'd guess a transparent WV swirl over a slag but you may never get a positive ID for this one.

Crazy cool!

A very cool modern take on vintage lined crockery, sometimes called Jasper, marbles - that is a very nice keepsake!

Too many different marbles in the same post makes them tough to keep track of . . .

These are collector's names. Here's a great thread with some of the best:

MK Bumble Bee.

Another that got spun on the rolls - at first glance, I see Ravenswood but it could be something else.

It's a twisted mutant but I'd guess Alley.

I have (or maybe had) the same marble. I don't think it was oxblood - more like horsehair.

That is a very nice Marble King. I think it has a name but it's escaping me at the moment. Maybe a Red Bee?

A Lemon Ade, also categorized as a Moss Agate - corkscrew style.

I'd guess Heaton, Alley {maybe Ravenswood), Alley, Heaton, Alley, Ravenswood.

I think that would also be categorized as a Moss Agate.

Lime Ade marketed as a Moss Agate by Akro - not a corkscrew.

Yup - big Alley.

That's a great relic, Ron. Thanks for sharing!

Good point!

I know the most common two-color (white based) corkscrews are called Prizenames but beyond those, do any other Prizenames have white? I think of those like the OP as a three color Special, and when I think of a Prizename, beyond the two color ones, I don't expect to see white. So, in my mind, a Lifesaver is a Prizename while a Liberty is a Special (both have three colors). Am I confused?

Seems like you have them right but I think the middle one might be considered a "special".

Slag - colors and pattern remind me of MFC.

I'd guess Champion left and JABO right.
