I always thought the big ones were called Toe Breakers. But I do remember being a kid and getting those gigantic jawbreakers that you could barely fit in your mouth.
-
I'm definitely not an Akro guy but I don't recall specific names for the standard color combinations.
-
I agree with Chad, and the first wants to be a Vitro Buttermilk but it's not quite there, IMO.
-
I think that Type II should be veneered. If not, it's not a Type II. Type IV are the only opaque Tiger Eyes.
-
I agree with Vitro but not a Conqueror.
-
The fourth marble is a Tiger Eye Type II - the black-streaked white ribbon was likely meant to be all purple/black. The third marble that Rick mentioned would probably be in the "Elite" group.
-
This shot is really giving me some strong Vitro vibes, and based solely on colors, I think you might have a killer Vitro in your hands, Gladys!
-
It looks like a Vitro to me.
-
It looks like the orange/red you might see on a Champion to me.
-
Close kin though, no doubt.
-
I'll take all the thanks I can get - whether I deserve them or not. 🤣

The "Score!" thread. Post your exciting finds here...
Ric replied to bumblebee's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Man, you got a bunch of nice marbles but, for me, this one is the standout.
-
I'd say 95% of transparent swirls are very difficult to identify with any certainty, every swirl-making company produced them.
-
I'd say Vitro, cage- or horseshoe-style cat's eyes in the first two pics (Vitros in the last pic too). They're really the same type of marble, but if you look at 3 o'clock in your 2nd pic, you can see why some are called horseshoes.

How about these..... especially the brown and red one
Ric replied to boris64's topic in Marble I.D.'s
On the first pic, I'll say, Peltier, JABO, Akro, Akro, Ravenswood. The last one appears to be a very interesting Peltier. I'd like to see more pics of that last one but I think you'll need to back up a bit so your camera can focus properly. -
Single seam glower . . .
-
I've never been a big Akro fan but I do like that butter cream base glass . . .
-
These are great!
-
It's an odd Vitro All Red.
-
That's a cool one, Dave!
-
I think most, if not all, are Vitros but there might be an Akro in there too.
-
I don't think it's vintage, either - maybe JABO.
-
I'm pretty sure this one is Vitro - a relative of a Black-eyed Pea.
