I'm pretty sure it's one of those VVHTF invisible mibs! Nice find?

It's a nice agate, for sure.

Not my strong suit but it's either modern or it's an old one that has been heavily polished - leaning modern.

The one with all the AV is from a JABO investor run - not sure which one though. The pinkish orange one upper right is a JABO Classic. The one below it probably is too. The white on black one looks modern but not sure about it. The yellow on black looks like Vacor to me, and the swirl does look to be a contemporary.

It is a Peltier Rainbo with a transparent base. Sometimes the ribbons dive into the matrix like vanes and sometimes they are on the surface.

Alley - nice colors!

My guess is Alley.

I think I'm seeing two seams. If so, I'd say a Peltier Rainbo with a translucent base.

I noticed that. 🙂

That's the one. I really like them. I don't think I have one like the second one you show, but I wish I did - nice mib, for sure.

Good looking 'bos - I've always liked the blue-based ones.

Looks like Master to me.

I think it might be one of those JABOs that sometimes gets mistaken for an Alley Superman.

Are these sort of "bulk" handmades, or do you know who made them?

The These are very interesting marbles. I like the way it looks like they've been overstuffed and are "busting at the seams".

It could be a lot of fun!

No kidding, Joep. That's a great selection!

Nice mibs! It's funny how the lower right marbles in both of our groups are the same type.

Nice, Dave. I especially like the second one!

I think it's a fairly common characteristic on a variety of maker's marbles.

You are right, it's a Peltier Peerless patch with Superboy colors, but I don't think I have heard them called Superboy patches. I'm not sure why not though, it seems logical to me.

A particular manufacturer doesn't come to mind for me but it looks like it might glow under UV - does it?

Quite a few years ago I came across what appear to be some "lunchbox" marbles in Illinois. They were in a wooden box with a bunch of other "treasures" like wooden nickels and other kinds of memorabilia. They were all double ingots that were perfectly smooth and, other than being out of round, were practically flawless. So I went looking in my Peltier archives and at shows to see if I could find matching marbles. Here are some of the ingots and marbles I found. The first group is one of my favorite kinds of Rainbos . . . The big sextuple ingot I gave to Bill was also in the group. Here it is again, in case you missed it earlier . . . 🙂

Happy Peltier Tuesday! A little miscellany to start things off . . .

It's a great question. I really haven't heard much, if any, discussion about marbles produced in India. But I sure would like to learn more so I hope you get some responses. It would be great if your friend could send you pics of any interesting marbles they see so you can show them here. Maybe we can all learn something!
