I don't think MFC made red marbles, other than Cornelians.
-
This is the only pic of it I have handy at the moment but I can take more tomorrow if it will help. It is an odd one sort of a brushed patch with yellow stripes.
-
I'm a little confused now Art. So Master Made didn't put their marbles in Master Made boxes but Master Glass did? And I assure you, there are no Imperial Marbles in that group.

Oh man, I used to lay awake at night worrying that someday my son might do some of the absolutely crazy dangerous stuff I did as kid.
-
This is really nice, Bruce!
-
Here's my No. 5.

Of course, it's always tough to tell "original" with a box but I don't see anything that looks too out of place. I'll be interested to hear what @akroorka says, though.
-
As far as I know American Agates only come in red.
-
It's sorta got that American Agate look.
-
Here's a link to a beauty Bill posted.
-
I would say, yes - nice one too.
-
Very nice, another great board and marbles.
-
That's a good looking marble.

The "Score!" thread. Post your exciting finds here...

I agree, Joep. Wow, there are a few awesome examples in this group! -
I doubt any are Victories since the transparent glass of those marbles is usually some of the nicest you will see - crystal clear and no bubbles.

Happy Ground Hog Day--show your best from the ground
Ric replied to akroorka's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
I think they're great, Joep, and given the look of them and the fact that they have been making marbles in the Netherlands for a very long time, my bet is they are quite old. How big are they? -
Base on these pics, the third in your OP is JABO and the first may be Heaton.
-
Alley on the right - not sure about the left one.
-
No oxblood, maybe Heaton.
-
Pretty sure. The only ones I might question are the first and the third, and I would need to see more before I changed my mind.
-
Yeah, that's a great marble - they don't come much cleaner! Nice group, Dave - lots of pink. It reminds me of a big collection I purchased from a woman around here who had collected for a long time - lots of pink and pastel colors on both hand-mades and machine-mades.
-
Based on the one view, they look like Alleys from St. Mary's to me.
-
Pretty funny story, but since the interior looks threaded, I doubt it was a valve - some kid probably just stuck it in the fitting who knows when. It's definitely a cool Rainbo though, I think I'd be kinda glad for the mishap!
-
I think it's likely just a European machine made with some nice interior action, since I don't see any evidence of hand-gathering.
