The "Score!" thread. Post your exciting finds here...
Ric replied to bumblebee's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
That is a nice bright yellow/orange and I agree it would be unusual for a Japanese "Mt. Fuji" type pincer - the poles don't look quite right either, IMO. It may be a Wales type marble, I have seen quite a few of those with bright colors. -
There's an easy way to tell a wire pull from a horseshoe cat's eye - wire pulls have a single continuous ribbon. It looks like you have some really nice ones in this bunch. I agree with Jeff, they are probably European, but they are way nicer looking than Champion's version, IMO.

Based on the size, the sort of chiffon yellow color and what appear to be white touch marks, I'll say JABO.
-
This is just shy of an inch . . . an old pic, please excuse the background. I love a good Alley with batch white glass!
-
Thanks, Dave. The Green Giants are really soft glass so finding a mint one not easy at all. You posted some nice ones today too. I especially like the blue one!
-
Yep, the first two are my favorites.
-
It looks Master to me - nice mib.
-
I should have said different views - sorry.
-
Just looking at the top pic, I could see Alley for the top two but I would need more views of the others. They're giving me a Heaton and Cairo vibe.
-
I think Art is right, the center one just has a weird fold in it.
-
Are you sure the top left marble is the same in both pics? I'm a little confused . . .
-
That's a beauty - great photo too!
-
I'm looking again at the second one . . . might be a newer Vitro - are the seams offset, i.e., if you set the marble so one seam is parallel to the table like ---- and then roll the marble straight toward you, is the other seam parallel to the table too or is it perpendicular? I hope this isn't too confusing, it's kinda hard to explain. lol
-
I think the first and second are Akro but the third does look more Vitro to me.
-
You are correct that the first is a Peltier Rainbo. The second and third look like Alleys to me, and the 5th (R/W/B) looks Vitro. What size is the 4th one?
-
A good Jackson . . .

Alley Jolly Green Giant
-
I agree, it doesn't strike me as Kokomo either.
-
A few decent ones . . . There is a lot of tiny oven debris in the large one but they all could have used a bath too . . .
-
Nice Conqueror, Joe. I really like it when the patch has a crazy shape - makes them much more interesting!
-
That's a nice Vitro! The base glass almost looks clear with a bit of internal green color somewhere, rather than green transparent glass with white filaments. Art Fisher was a master at using a bit of color inside a marble to make clear base glass look colored.
-
Those look MK to me. But I have not seen that yellow color in a 4-color St. Mary's marble. I have also not seen a 4-vane 3-color MK or a 3-vane 3-color MK.
-
My guess is foreign - cool looking marble.
-
It looks like a patch and the base seems kinds light for a PBJ - maybe Akro?
