Vitro but not a Bull's Eye. They have ribbons of one color surrounding a patch of another color.
-
It's a shame there are really only two views of the marble.
-
At 5/8" they are not Blue Boys - I think they were 3/4". A few look like Alleys but something about them seems off to me.
-
Not Ravenswoods I recognize. I think some are JABO Blue Boys - not sure about the two bottom left. What size are they?
-
First group, two Vitro TriLites on the outside and a Master in the middle. All Vitros in the second group. TriLites are great marbles. I especially like it when they have a lot of clear glass - These are nice ones IMO.
-
And peewees and big ones too!
-
You have too many marbles on that board - better send one to me. 😁
-
Nice - now you can look for a blue one and one with both blue and green.
-
I think Alley on the two outer ones but I'm not sure about the transparent based one in the middle - they are notoriously tough to ID.
-
My first guess would be Heaton.
-
You are off to a strong start though!
-
It's pretty easy to see why there was some confusion at first . . . The big difference is that the Alleys on the outside were not found at the Akro digs like the center patch was.
-
The circled one is the MK Rainbow Red - sometimes called a double ribbon structure since there are two sets of equatorial ribbons (one pair will always be red).
-
Some of those patches like the lower right can be tough to ID since Akro, Vitro and MK all made marbles that can look very similar.
-
A little hard to tell from this view but I think the top right is probably MK - the bottom one does look more Vitro to me.
-
The one you added is a MK Rainbow Red.
-
There are some better referred to as spirals that can be ceramic (AM&T), China (German) or glass (Navarre) but they look quite a bit different. Then there are "broken corkscrews" that are Peltier. But true corkscrews are Akro.
-
I'm sure you realize there are a few big Vacors in the mix. The others are interesting but not like any I am familiar with so probably not American is about all I can say. Hopefully, someone else will be able to tell us more about them.
-
They all look like Corkscrews from this view.
-
They look to be mostly newer All Reds but there might be a couple of MKs in the mix. And if there is light blue between the yellow and red patches on the lower left marble it's a Yellow Jacket.
-
They look like Champions to me.
-
I think they're both Vitro and the second is a whacky Conqueror type.
