Looks like white over black from here but you'll have to decide. lol. Any AV in the black?

If it's white on black, it would be a Skunk. What is the base like? Can you get light through it?

Alley Sistersville (Lawrence Glass and Novelty Co.)

There's a bit of AV in each one.

Nice Joep, you put a lot of time into those displays!

I don't think this marble got the attention it deserves, Gladys - better late than never, I guess. To me, this looks like a weird Type III Tiger Eye, mainly because it has two same color patches on the poles while most have different colored patches. On the other hand, if you called this marble a clear-based "Anti-Whitie", I would know what you are talking about - clear-based Whities (like the one William just posted) normally have white on the poles and two same-colored ribbons around the equator, and this is the opposite of that, no doubt. 🙂

Too funny, Chris.

Unusually bright yellow ones, Gladys, and I really needed a little sun this morning - thanks for providing it!

Nice mibs, William.

It's a great Alley, Tommy, and with looks like that, finding one in excellent condition is very difficult.

Prima Agates are sort of Peltier's answer to CAC American Agates. And the black on white one is an Alley Inky.

Jumpin' Jimminy man - get out the sunglasses, that's an amazing marble!

I'm pretty confident they're all Vitro, William.

I will add that the base glass on the marbles you posted here looks to be of much lower quality than the Veiligglas marbles I am familiar with.

The colors are unusual for Vitro, no doubt - they look more Akro, but I still think it's a Vitro because it looks veneered. Let me check to see if I have any similar.

Haha, and babies play with 10 kg boulders, I suppose. lol.

This conversation would be much simpler if we had big handfuls of verified examples of each type to compare. I really don't even know what the full range of variations in Veiligglas marbles is.

It's Vitro - a Conquereor or maybe a Dultite.

I wonder, do young children play with lighter wooden ones maybe?

I agree the first is a Vacor Liberty and I think there is a chance the other two are Asian.

They may have made some at Pennsboro but I think the vast majority of these types were made at St. Marys.

Yeah, I should have added metal to the list. 🙂 My understanding is that they a pretty heavy.

It's a tough question, Chris. To me, the striping in the marbles you show seems less smooth and flowing than the striping on most Veiligglas marbles I'm familiar with. Here are a couple of groups WInnie posted in 2016:

It looks close but seems too bright, at least in these pics.

From the St. Mary's location.
