    ID help

    #s 1 & 5 are Vacor. #6 looks Asian, #3 is from a JABO investor's run, #4 might be Vitro but could use another view or two, and not sure about #2 - more views might help.
  2. One of my favorite pieces . . . I think it's a powder. It's about 3 1/2" in diameter and 2 3/4" tall.
  3. I don't think most people would say it's three colors.
  4. I forgot to ask . . . does anyone know what the middle one is called?
  5. Wow, That's an beautiful marble!
  6. Nice marbles, Dave - the second one is really great!
  7. Great group of marbles, Gladys, and your photos are sooo good!
  8. It just keeps getting better, Joep!
  9. That is a super marble, Bill - the orange peel is great! It's like 1 1/4" too, isn't it?
  10. Bullet molds are historically associated with Czechoslovakia (the Czech Republic or Slovakia now). Here's an old one . . . I have no idea who might be making them now though.
  11. You did it, Art! And I'll bet you're glad you did. I'm jealous now because I want a try too!
  12. I wouldn't mind seeing it back-lit, but not too brightly.
  13. I kinda liked the "tweener" idea, I think it had its place.
  14. What a great video - lots of my favorite marbles. Many thanks to Nola for sharing her collection and to Stephen for another great production!
  15. I would urge caution since I am pretty sure I've seen similar JABOs.

    What ? 5/8

    They are the same, as far as I can tell. But I think that's very weird pumpkin-colored striping for a Pelt and the seams aren't very Pelt-like either, IMO. Having said that, I am certainly no Pelt-head so maybe it's just a very strange type.
  17. It's like Roberto said, imagine taking a small piece of wire, folding it into a spherical shape and sticking it in a marble. lol
  18. Okay, so I still haven't been able to lay my hands on that Pink "Bennington" but I did find an old pic. For this thread, you can certainly ignore the marble on the left - it's an early American. And I am sure there's a reason I photographed these two together - you might want to ignore the one on the right too. lol
  19. Very cool, Chad - kinda different and bubbleicious!
