  1. Well . . . it's just a little out-of-round . . . 🙂
  2. I think I see what you're seeing but it's hard to tell - this dirty boy could really use a bubble bath!

    All Alleys?

    I think the lower left may be Ravenswood. The others do look mostly Alley to me. The lower right one is my favorite, I'm about 60% Alley / 40% Ravenswood for that one.
  4. I could see it - looking at the right edge of the bag, I may detect a fold line, which would make it fit. But @akroorka Is the go to person around here for Akro bag questions. I'll bet he'll have some thoughts.
  5. From the look of the seams, I think it might be a Peltier Dragon, but I can see why you might think MK Watermelon. Let's see what others say.
  6. Happy Slag and Swirl Saturday! I guess you could call this little 21/32" Navarre a swirl . . .
  7. Nice mibs . . . If you look at the right marble in pics 1 and 3, you can see that there is a red strand running from pole to pole deep in the transparent patch. And in pics 2 and 4 you can see it surfacing at one of the seams.
  8. I think Art may be on to something. It looks like some South American marbles I have seen.
  9. Hmmm . . . these are always a challenge. I am not seeing Ravenswood. I think Champion or Alley are better possibilities.
  10. Did you post a more swirly version of that first marble earlier? I may need to revisit that post based on this marble - this one looks a little Vitro to me but it's unusual, and I am not entirely sure what to think about it. Maybe something will come to me later. Your second marble impresses me as a Champion but Alley would be my second choice. It is not uncommon for yellow glass to react with UV. The purplish blue color you see is not fluorescence, it's just a reflection of the visible light coming from your source.
  11. I agree with Charile, the structure looks Akro to me, and the glass looks like a variant of the "Ade base", which glows like nuts.
  12. Very interesting marbles. They are similar to other marbles I have seen from Brazil and Argentina. Stephanie started a thread about these types some time ago. You may find it interesting.
  13. As far as I know, this Vitro Type I Tiger Eye color combination is unnamed. The only named Tiger Eye that I can think of is an "Alligator Eye". There may be others though, I don't keep up with names very well. In general, Type I Tiger Eyes will have two different colored ribbons around the equator, a white patch on one pole, and a colored patch on the other pole (yours is a little goofy), and all of the colors are veneered on transparent base glass.

    3/4 WVS

    I'm thinking Sistersville Alley - pretty sure I've seen similar.
  15. It looks a bit more Master than Akro to me, but both companies made brushed patches and they can be very similar.
  16. It looks like most, if not all, are Master Made or Akro Agate - nice score!
  17. There are quite a few good examples of Master lashes in this thread:
  18. @DHUNNIE 27 The "Ade base" that you will find in Lemonades, Limeades, Cherryades, Blueberryades, and other Akros will usually produce a very strong green/yellow response under UV. It'll be obvious once you get your hands on a few. (Not my pic, Chad posted it a while back - not his pic either.)
  19. I do think the first is a Vacor Sunset and that the others are not American made either - they may be Vacors or Asian (Imperial?) types.
  20. I think Alley is a real possibility.

    Uk beach marble

    Neat bit of beach glass but there isn't really enough detail for an attempt at identification.

    So .....

    The first looks like it might be a hand-made of some sort - the pictures are a bit out of focus so it's hard to tell. The others look like JABOs to me.
