Me too.

There is an Alley Bacon Swirl but this is much better - Alley Superman.
-
Alley from St. Mary's.
-
Cool.
-
Nice Rick. I like those trays too.
-
Not a 7-up on the left, IMO - they have a transparent green base. This looks like a Holly Berry. I agree on the MK though.
-
Maybe MK?
-
Vitro is my guess.
-
I'm thinking Vitro - reminds me of a Tomato - Vitro that is.
-
You probably say that to all your marbles. lol
-
Here is an old post with some that look pretty much like it . . .
-
We need the Marble Queen @Steph !
-
I didn't even read it that way, Gladys! When I think of wonky, I think of a one-off - a real oddball, and I'm not convinced that is what my marble is. I just think it's unusual, and as I said, I am surprised I haven't seen others like it. Now this, this is WONKY . . . lol
-
I'm thinking Vitro.
-
Might be an old-style Hurricane? I don't know Vacors that well.
-
Is that mib as out of round as it appears in pics 3 & 4. It's a crazy looking Vacor - almost looks like someone torched. it.
-
I'm pretty sure these are German and I think they're kinda cool . . . The biggest (first) one is 7/8". The two on the right almost look like they were floating is some junk in the kiln.
-
I think the only MK I have seen with seams this offset is one of those crazy dug swirls.
-
Wow, the seller apparently misplaced them or dropped the box in the middle of the road.
-
The "Score!" thread. Post your exciting finds here...

Nice! At over 1 1/4" I'd say that big one probably is MFC. Looks like you got a decent little Christmas Tree too. -
Champion probably produced more swirls than any company other than Alley and yet we rarely see marbles identified as such, unless they're the bicentennial, NOFs or Furnace mibs. I think it's because we just don't know alot about their early production.
-
Yeah, wonky MKs aren't so uncommon, but this one doesn't seem so wonky to me, just unusual. And I can't believe I haven't seen others like it. It's pretty back-lit but kinda dull in-hand.
-
Red clay body with a glazed white painted slip. It's unusual, at least for me, haven't seen one quite like it. It'll be interesting to hear what others have to say.
