To me, the white almost looks more like base glass than striping.
-
Definitely not Vitro - it's a WV Swirl of some sort. And I wouldn't worry too much about, some marbles just can't be identified with any real certainty, in which case, it doesn't matter much because they have little collectible value.
-
I'm not brave enough to guess on this one. In my mind, it could easily have been made by any one if several manufacturers - other than Veiligglas.
-
Just shy of 3/4" seems big for a Furnace marble, at least to me, so now I'm not sure what to think. Maybe they got that big, but I'm thinking more about Jabo as a possibility now. Do I see a speck of green AV left of center in that eye window?
-
They are Alleys, Ron just told me today that they are called "Woodland Camos".
-
The top one is an Alley Agate Superman - common fracturing and all. I'd guess Alley on the second one too, unless it's 9/16", then I might lean Ravenswood. They're both very nice marbles.
-
It looks like a Furnace marble to me.
-
That is a beautiful and impressive collection of micas. And among them all, a single red one. Your pic illustrates their rarity very well.
-
Very cool, Art, collectible for sure. Just looking at it though, it doesn't seem like it would spin for beans, which might help explain your difficulty finding info. It may have been been a short-lived item. I really think you should take one out and give it a whirl - just to see how it works. 😁
-
Nice ones, Dave. I especially like the gray blue one!
-
Nice marble, Rick! I got the ram, but I think you counted one of the birds twice because I can't find the third, or are you just trying to make me crazy on purpose? lol.
-
Thanks, Dave!
-
Nice, Rick, that's an ambitious project but it looks like you're off to a good start!
-
Some old Alleys . . .
-
Nice mib - AV always makes them better!
-
Great marbles, Ron. That's a really nice Sistersville. What do you know about these orange ones? I have some too and they worry me a little.
-
New name to me - thanks, Ron! And I suspect that back row center one has been polished.
-
I do, but I don't think it would be a Trilite - could be an odd Popeye Patch though, but normally I would expect the colors together in a more distinct patch, and the colors don't really look right for Akro to me either, but that could be a lighting issue - or my eyes.
-
I really do like them . . .
-
Big ones.
-
I thought something looked a little off kilter - nice mibs though!
-
Very nice Opal Lady, Gladys! If you haven't already seen Alleys "Blush Line" you should check this thread.
-
100% Vitro - they're not all oddballs, Gladys. They're beauties too - nice early Elites!
-
More brown than amber.
